Free plugin, works great!
We're using on our website since 2017 and our users love it. Definitely the best live blog tool in the market, and it's free.

The best of all!
Best plugin for live blogging! After trying pretty much every other plugin/tool out there, Arena.im is by far the best, specially for sports (with live scores, play by play) and breaking news. The widget adapts to my CSS and loads super fast. The support team is amazing and they're always improving and adding new features!
