Great opportunity

This live streaming is providing a great opportunity, for those not able to attend the sports events, an opportunity to watch and hear the events as they take place. This all started with the desire to live stream the 4th of July parade for family not able to be on the island. It seems to be something that is valuable. One comment, stolen from facebook was, "Watching the Islander volleyball team play with a live stream. Cool, really cool!"

It's a lot of work to setup, but it truly is worth it to get these comments. Eighty-seven different IP addresses for different people to view the volleyball and soccer games today.

Beaver Island News on the 'Net will continue to try to present "Today's News as Close to Today as Possible" with live streaming video as well as recorded video, photographs, and text. Thanks to all of you who gave the viewing a try! You made it worth the effort!
