Wolfram Alpha: Watch the launch live @ 7pm CDT (video)
- lrm242 17y agoI suppose this could be like watching Nascar... you hope for the best but if there is a terrible accident it's sort of what you were expecting?
- oomkiller 17y agoHeh, maybe it won't get taken out by tornadoes before they get it launched. That would REALLY be a terrible accident.
- huhtenberg 17y agoSo they launch on Friday. Uhm. What about the biggest no-no of the PR business - no important activity on Thursday or Friday since you can make a way better bang in the beginning of the week ? (edit) Oh .. nevermind, they are going live during next 48 hours, so it should in fact get to a fully up and running state Monday morning.

- mitchellh 17y agoIt already has quite a bit of hype out in the wild so I don't think launching on Friday will hurt them too much. If anything I think a Friday launch will help since hopefully traffic will be lower on sat/sun and they can maintain the service and prepare it for massive traffic during the week.
- ianbishop 17y agoFriday launch in the mid-evening. Are they trying to downplay any service failures?
- chaosmachine 17y agoso, this is live now: http://www.justin.tv/wolframalpha http://www.justin.tv/wolframalpha but the video stream keeps dying after 10 seconds, for me.
