The anticipation is building… and the Vancouver 2010 Olympics are coming up fast, with the opening ceremonies this Friday. Perhaps because the Olympics are hosted in my home country, the ‘buzz’ is a little greater than usual… But I can’t help it. I’ve officially caught Olympic fever. And you know what the only cure for it is? MORE COWBELL!

Yessir, while doing some snooping around the App Store yesterday I stumbled across this one, and after a brief break to watch one of my favorite Will Ferrell skits, I returned to check it out. ‘Cowbell 2010′ from Rage digital is quite simple. Select your country, and you’ll get your very own cowbell adorned with your nation’s flag. From there, shake your iPhone or iPod Touch just like you would a real cowbell. Simple.

Besides the basic cowbell functionality, there’s also a full event schedule, Twitter and Facebook integration, a real-time medal tally by country, and much more!

Cowbell 2010 is available now for only $0.99 (iTunes link). For more information you can also hit up cowbell2010.com.
