MWSF 2004 Coverage

Thanks to everyone who helped out with Macrumors event coverage.

MudBug => Provided IRC transcripts
jammerb => Provided Satellite Feed for the website updates
Knox => IRC coordination/bot management

Mr. Anderson, Eyelikeart, AmbitiousLemon, Rower_CPU => Moderating these forums during this busy time
Sparkleytone,Shadow95 => IRC moderation

Some useless stats:

- ~1500 people were on IRC across 3 channels for the event coverage.
- The Keynote coverage page was loaded over 860,000 times yesterday.
- Forums hit a new record of 2652 users on at once. (and we didn't crash )

Ouch! Even with the low bandwidth page in place during the keynote, that must have hurt the old wallet ($$$$) bandwidth++



Anyway, great job on the live keynote updates, they were very informative

Half of those 860,000 views were most likely from Spymac members, seeing as Spymac was down for the keynote (great move there ).

Thanks Arn

You keep this site in good order. Thanks for the coverage, thanks for feeding us with a constant stream of curious, interesting, trivial and not-so-trivial, wonderful, and well, all kinds of information.

A daily visit to Macrumors and MacBytes can take a while but keeps me fully informed.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks
