This paper explores the contribution of online communities to the legacy of the 2012 Olympics. In particular, it discusses how new media imperatives have arisen in recent Games and the various challenges and opportunities they present for host cities and Organizing Committees. It argues that online and mobile environments are reconstituting the infrastructure and provision of a range of Olympic deliverables, such as media provision and the cultural programmes. The paper discusses how features of new media content, typified by Web 2.0 principles and social networking sites, demand a revised approach to understanding Olympic Intellectual Property. Moreover, it argues that new media environments have the capacity to become the new Livesites of the Olympic infrastructure. They also present a new opportunity for Organizing Committees to prolong their Olympic legacy and to engage communities before Games time. .
