Watch the Olympics Online!

It’s time for the Winter Olympics, and once again, those who love to watch the action but don’t have a TV will look to the internet for coverage. Thankfully, those behind major sporting events have followed the lead of online movie and TV services and have transitioned to make video content available online.

However, this genre really ups the ante of online video, because timing is vital—we need live streaming. (Because who really wants to spoil the ending of the Super-G?)

This year, NBC is streaming selected events much like they did in Beijing in 2008, with many to be made available with a short delay. (No time zone difference for us this time!) I haven’t yet found evidence that they will broadcast the opening ceremony live, but I’ll be checking back at 7:30 pm ET tonight.
