Crowd Narration Comes to the Neuros OSD
Posted on 29 September 2008, at 6:46 am, by Joel McLaughlin
Imagine participating in a chat about the Presidential Debate, or any other live event, and the chat being superimposed on top of your TV. Sure, it’s been done before, but that’s been controlled by the media. This is outside of whatever the news outlets will do, and it is provided on your Neuros OSD by a piece of software which runs on the OSD and was created by the community.
To get this set up on your OSD, just follow the instructions on Joe’s blog post, and then point your web browser at the narration web site. You don’t have to have a OSD to participate in the chat, but it will help. You can also do many other fun things with it!
Now I know that I missed posting about this until after the first debate, but odds are this will become something you can use in the other debates and will probably be expanded for other live TV events. Come join the revolution!

And given the demographic/political makeup of the techies that aren’t into things like OSD, you can be sure 90% of the comments lean left

We’re not all liberal. At least 2 of my close open source friends are conservative. Stereotypes suck.

I’m not sure why it was necessary to comment on someone’s possible political persuasion or what value it adds to the conversation. What does this have to do with this story which is about a feature available on the Neuros OSD?
