Internet at 36,000ft is a beautiful thing (thank you Southwest Airlines)! Here's my standard rack-up of results from WC3 - as always, corrections are welcome.
Italy didn't attend this World Cup, so we won't have any of Elena Viviani's awesome photos to look forward to
- but hopefully I'll find some other good stuff waiting when I check my email and Google Alerts!
