The Finland’s website is the one that make me think to the Olympics.

I think that the polish design is my favourite out of the list, they have done well to keep it looking relatively neat with all that information!
Thanks for sharing.

Almost every design uses blue as a dominant color. While this is a very specific niche for sites, it’s still interesting how so many of the sites look alike. Thanks for rounding these up!

There are some fairly well designed sites here. Most seem very fitting to the theme of the Olympics and have been structured well.
I especially like the Canadian website, really well designed and structured well. Unlike a few of the other sites it doesn’t feel as cluttered and is easy to navigate around the site.
I am a little disappointed that a few of the sites have simply taken the official websites background and used it themselves. I would like to have seen the designers think of something themselves that is still fitting into the theme of the Olympics.

I think the Dutch OS2010 website ( http://www.nos.nl/os2010 ) deserves a spot on this list. Great media coverage and a nice customizable schedule (3rd link on the menubar).

All the websites look great, but I prefer the U.S. layout. It looks very easy and clean to read.
