How to follow the Olympics on Twitter
Though we're just a few days into the 2018 Winter Games, it's possible you're already suffering from Olympics whiplash.
Signs of Olympics whiplash include:
Devotion to your country's team.
Regular googling of the time in Pyeongchang, South Korea
A strong need to keep up with multiple concurrent events, despite the disheartening truth that it's impossible to see every event in real time
We feel you. We're Olympics obsessives, but we're also normal non-athletes who have to eat, sleep, and (occasionally) get some work done. Gluing ourselves to a live feed from Pyeongchang just won't do.
Instead, we're keeping up with the Winter Games the way we do everything else: through Twitter. Our favorite channels, below:
Olympics, @Olympics
The official account of the International Olympic Committee, @Olympics shares event videos, photos, and updates, plus quotes from winning athletes.

Leslie Jones, @lesdoggg
Saturday Night Live's Leslie Jones's off-the-cuff, hilarious live updates have earned her a reputation as the unofficial queen of Olympics live event coverage. Just as she did for the 2016 Summer Games in Rio, Jones will join NBC in Pyeongchang this year for on-the-ground coverage. And though she isn't in South Korea yet, she's been live-tweeting all weekend.
