ESPN's batcave

ESPN is working on creating widgets people can use to keep track of score and sports news, reports MediaPost.

The widgets feed desktops or mobile devices with the latest scores and news from a variety of ESPN content. They are expected to be a big hit — both with hardcore fans and fantasy football players.

ESPN has made a number of online moves recently, including buying international sports sites — such as Cricinfo and Scrum, a rugby site — and high-school and college sports sites. The network also created a podcast series.
