I was quite happy to be operating the webcast and chat room beside him. The DJ at Waterloo was amazing, with ustream viewers repeatedly thanking him and even requesting his playlist or muting other regionals just to hear his music.
I encourage anybody who wasn't watching the Waterloo webcast to definitely check it out, and I believe our team will be doing GTR as well. Besides some issues with ustream that are being worked out things went quite smoothly, and our audio/video quality was way above par.
Special thanks to Trevor Kearse for helping Karthik on the chat and moderating as I was helping Paul. Additional thanks to Mark Breadner to making the webcast setup at the FTA table quite comfortable and supplying as much as he could, even ordering a second camera for Friday and Saturday. Also for getting us up on http://canfirst.org quickly.

The idea of the Announcer Game for suggesting things to say was pretty cool.
