    the network is ridiculously slow.. just realized that the infinite streaming is probably why. And we have about 25% of capacity at work today, too, since the govt is off

    Man half the streets are closed in DC...metro stations are backed up to hell.. I bet it'd take 2 hours to get in and out right now. I'm glad I'm staying the hell out of the city today (and did all weekend)

    I am watching through Hulu.com, they're using a feed from FoxNews

    Having no sound is a bummer, captions would help a lot, although I might switch from the FoxNews stream if I have to read what they're commenting

    Ick! I can't watch Fox News.

    So far the stream on CNN has been steady. Though the hosts leave a little bit to be desired ;)

    This is not any inauguration day! History will remember this as one of the most important days in the US history, mark it down.

    I campaigned against the guy, but I get it. This a huge day in history. I'm going to watch it all somewhere when I get home.

    Congrats to Obama from a Republican


    I agree, regardless of your political affiliation, this is a historic moment.

    Sigh. And why is that?

    Time will tell whether this is a good presidency or not. Nothing else. And I see nothing "historic" about another Democrat going into office.

    That said, I hope things get turned around, and I'll give him tons of credit if it occurs.
