Here are some comments from people watching the US Open playoff on their computers at work:
“If IT shuts this down, I will suddenly develop the 12 hour flu.” Justin, CA --- “The magnificence of this website is only eclipsed by the wonder of this live feed.” Timmy, IN --- “This is awesome! Thanks IBM and USGA for the feed. Watching on dual monitors :) Go Tiger!!” Michael, TX --- “Boss just walked in on me......he asked for the website address.” Obee, MD --- “Thanks USGA. I thought I was going to have to go home "sick" today.” Homer, AZ --- “I know I’m not the only one with my mouse over a fake spreadsheet document.” matt, MA --- “Love the raw feed with the pacific blue, misty La Jolla cliffs instead of commercials...nice!” Tim --- “The internet - man's greatest achievement.” Mark, AZ --- “The first time I have never had a case of the Mondays. Thanks USGA.” Matthew, FL --- “Thank you USGA, this is simply the best day of work I have ever had! juan, MA --- “Get to work Mr. Pierce, this is your BOSS!!!!!” David, NC --- “Thanks. Sent link to the boss and got a "That a boy"” Jason, WA --- “I haven't wasted this much time at work since Friday.” Bill, VA.
Have you ever heard such effusive praise for the Internet machine? Productivity, what? (All joking aside, it really was pretty amazing to watch online. During televised commercials, the camera cut away to a live feed of the California coast. And what a tournament to watch; Mediate was awesome, but Tiger…well.)
