A Guide for the Olympics Online
There’s a lot of hubbub over how much of the Olympics will be online this year. Despite the fact that NBC is delaying the webcasting of popular events until after they air on the Pacific Coast, there’s still so much video that we thought we’d help you out by giving you a handy-dandy guide to what’s available and where.
Here’s where to feed your Olympics coverage addiction:
| Location | Content |

I still can’t figure out what the numbers in the gold circles mean on NBC’s guide. Though I did discover much of the content I want to watch (online) is midnight - 4am - hopefully they’ll archive ALL of it for more reasonable viewing hours.
