Web Site Statistics During The Championship

[Rich Wong]

HEY EVERYBODY!

Some facts for your future presentations and conversations:

With the help of NASA's Telescience Lab we streamed 6 fields, 12 streams, in Windows Media and Realplayer from the Robotics Finals. Archimedes seemed to get the most viewing.

Overall, we had over 80,000 hits to the FIRST web site which lead to 48,042 hits on the Windows Media webcasts, and 23,263 hits for RealPlayer webcasts, and reached a sustained output of Windows media streams of 324 Mbits/sec, and 52 Mbits/sec RealPlayer.

Throughout most of the competition, we had total between 1100-1300 simultaneous streams (WM and RealPlayer) online at any given time.
