TV Junkie: How/Where To Watch The Inauguration
Did anyone have a chance to watch the "We Are One" inaugural gala on HBO yesterday? Some of it interesting, some of it schmaltzy, not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.
Where to watch the inauguration ceremony tomorrow? Gigaom has a list of viewing spots both on TV and online. The ceremony and related activities go from 8:30am-11:00am Pacific. Our recommendation is to check out C-SPAN, CBS, and MSNBC. Some outlets will have coverage from 5:00am-8:00pm Pacific - whoa crazy!
