Just wondering.
It seemed after this past weeks episode that they just wanted to test out using live.yahoo.com to broadcast. Yahoo is still in early alpha stages and after just a little time of broadcasting the feed and chat on yahoo went down.

Why not try out JTV? I'd figured that Kevin may have at least heard of it since their based in SF. I've seen a couple of feeds go 500+ without hiccups, though I have a feeling a diggnation feed would surpass that but it would be worth a try.

If you don't know the link to jtv it's justin.tv (I'm not promoting it in any way, remove the link if it's against the rules).

Or Ustream.tv or one of the other many video sites.

They probably wanted to crash their servers.

They could've also used ustream.tv

JTV has just a plain ugly layout.

Yeah I figured from what was said, they just wanted to crash the servers.
Yeah I thought about mentioning ustream as well, but jtv is based in SF and their layout isn't as bulky. Not that it's pretty or anything.

I was thinking uStream because Pirillo has 500+ viewers all the time (more than Justin) and it never goes down. Maybe they had a secret Yahoo sponsor? Sure they said they wanted to cash their servers, but still.
