Hoboken 411 had elected to not cover the event with live chat (that site has been getting really lazy and sloppy as of late) I did get a few stragglers over to my site that would normally be content to spout their vitriol over there. Other than a few racist posts on Ravi Bhalla that I deleted and a bit of Hoboken 411 repetitious claptrap I let the comments fly keeping consistent with my policy to keep the chat unmoderated as possible.
Peak viewers on the City feed at one point was about 126 viewers and I had a total of 58 readers on the live chat and almost 1,700 total comments a new Hoboken Journal record! Not bad for a "tiny" site like mine; those were some giant numbers! :). I am glad to be able to provide the readers who are not on the anti-Zimmer band wagon of pure hate riding to the bowels of hell a place on their little white ponies a place to comment freely. For those who think I was too lenient last night as always it is a work in progress on exactly where to draw the line. I tend to let commenters have a wide berth and close the gap when things get racist and like spam, repeating the same thing.
Cost of Live Blogging Software: Free
Cost of watching Lane Bajardi destroy his chances in a media career: Priceless!
