Epic did something pretty cool today, and decided to provide a central location (actually several) were we could watch live streams of Obama’s swearing in and inaugural address. Unfortunately, the Hulu stream wasn’t cooperating when I got down there. Someone found a radio, and they swapped out the computer audio for the radio. It wasn’t cutting in and out, but there was a fair amount of static and the audio and video weren’t even close.

After a few minutes I got an idea. I have the TWIT.am app on my iPhone; sure enough, Leo was streaming the inauguration. The best part – my audio was 5 times better than the radio. Since the video was pretty bad anyway, I went ahead and walked back to my desk. I missed the oath, but I heard most of the speech. I’m impressed.
