Well, my crappy webcast was sort of doing OK — audio stopping and starting, but basically stable — until a minute ago when it abruptly cut out completely. I tried to reload the page. Here’s what I got:
The most important constitutional convention in years, and the freaking House servers can’t handle the traffic. Excellent — this new openness in government thing is going really well.
Please share widely!
I can’t get it to work at all from my Mac, and it’s about 1 second on, 3 seconds off in Windows.

Whose bright idea was this, anyway?
Who could pass up an opportunity like THAT?
… but I thought they were going to offer this to local access channels. I checked {RCN} 3, 13, and 15, and it’s not there, either.

Comcast, anybody?
… I can watch Watertown Town Meeting fisticuffs live, why on earth can’t we watch the staid old Lege?

I suspect that if they gave me a small piece of that 300K they’re supposedly saving, I could have done the load testing and balancing for them. Heh.
Mine’s still going and they are voting on it, apparently. I missed the sound but the caption says they are voting on the amendment.

Uh oh. I may be losing it.
The webcast started coming in crystal clear–no buffering, clear audio–around 3:00pm. Maybe everyone dropped off thinking that the Fat Lady has sung?
I think they turned the audio off now, though.
There was a minute or so of audio, and then back to silence with the gray overlay.

I can’t tell what’s going on.
