I dunno. Here's the Official Site. Mebbe there's some information there.

Jeff Buttle just skated. He dropped three times. I hope he still makes it on the podium tho...

I only know the Canadians, the Japanese skater, and the French skater, because they've been making headway this season.

The Bulgarians beat the Canadians in pairs.

Miki Ando wins the World Skating Championship gold medal.

Mao Asada takes the silver and Kim Yu-Na the bronze...

See, Canada and China did make the top...so good for Miki to make it to the top, and Ayaka singing I Believe was awesome

There is also a section devoted to other skaters.
Some topics are particularly intresting too, such as http://yunaforum.com/index.php?showtopic=50&st=0&p=289&#entry289 Music you would love to see Yu-Na skate to.
The pictures section is already very rich by his own

Ando, Oda clinch Olympic berths at Grand Prix Final

TOKYO - Japan's Miki Ando booked her ticket to next February's
Winter Olympics after finishing runner-up to South Korean starlet Kim
Yu Na at the Grand Prix Final on Saturday.

Nobunari Oda finished second in the men's event to also
guarantee himself a berth for Vancouver. American Evan Lysacek took
advantage of an error-strewn performance from Daisuke Takahashi to
win the men's title with 249.45 at Yoyogi national gymnasium.

That was a lucky break for the American it sounds like.
