Streaming the Prez Debate in SL — sort of

Hamlet Linden has a story in New World Notes about tonight’s presidential debate that is catching air time in the blogosphere. Some folks are gonna stream the debate into the game via NPR, hang out, yak about it, and in Hamlet’s case blog it (yes another Linden sucked into the blogspace vortex). I guess that’s cool, but basically it amounts everyone listening to the same radio station while they play SL. It would be more impressive if they could run a video feed in the game. but then again how would that be different from putting a television next to your monitor? (or opening a window next to your SL window). This gets my vote for much ado about not much.
