With the 2008 Beijing Olympics freshly behind us, it's time to muse over how the games changed this time around. From a tech perspective, things were monumentally different. Today's Internet allowed people to follow along online and stream the Olympic games — to boot, NBCOlympics.com streamed over 2,200 live hours of games!
I have friends who watched the Olympics only on the Internet, and some who watched it the old-fashioned way — on TV. It's fantastic that we live in a time where we have that option; so now, tell me: How did you get your Summer Olympics?
I watched most through internet.
But i think it´s a shame what NBC is doing, forbidding videos on Youtube!
