People viewed it in the US, Spain, Canada, Germany, Austria, Venezuela, and other countries around the globe (seriously!)...
Students chose the questions, not just before the event but in a liveblog DURING the event...
What was it? The historic GWBlogspot SA presidential run-off debate, streamed live tonight!
Watch the number of viewers grow...
And grow...
And grow...
It's obvious that word kept spreading and spreading throughout the hour-long debate. Over 200 people watched in all -- as many as 73 or so at any given time. Pretty friggin' awesome.And grow...
And grow...
And there was vibrant chatter at the liveblog (which you can still check out). Many questions asked during the debate came from students' comments in the liveblog -- the essence of bottom-up democracy. Plus, there were some great cameo questions from the Colonialist and GW Ballroom Society.
Props to Neha (the super-duper moderator), Farhan (the stealthy director), Evan (the timekeeper), Nick and Stephen (the liveblog vetters), Lucy/Daniel/Paige (who liveblogged and promoted the debate), Andrew (poster designer), Katelyn (debate announcer and question gatherer), and Owen (logo designer).
I do believe this is the most historic moment in GWBlogspot's history (and heck, in GWU's online history) since January 28, 2008:
