DDF Stream Of Siyum HaShas…
The event is now over but our video feed sure went viral. Thanks to JJ (the amateur videographer using his Galaxy Nexus phone) who enabled a whopping 85,000+ total viewers (according to ustream’s count) to take part from their homes!
————————————————–
DDF member jj1000′s stream of the Siyum HaShas has been trending pretty highly on the DansDeals Forums and has over 800 current viewers, so here is a link for your viewing pleasure.

Gotta love how VIN news rips this off without giving any credit at all. So typical of them.

@Sam: I think that COL ripped it off w/o giving credit either.

I was watching it on Vinnews until the guy just said, brought to you by dans deals.com. I was shocked…lol

VIN actually had it before Dan’s Deals posted it.
I was on when it had less than 100 viewers, and Dan posted it when it was over 1000.

thank you dan for allowing us people who could not make it to the siyum to see it from our homes.

@BLITZ:
That’s not possible as jj1000 posted the link to the dansdeals forums in the first place.

@Sam:
Do you mean in the forum itself. I didn’t see it in the forum, I meant the main site.
I actually got it as a text.

In the future please make sure that your stream is clear and audible, I could not understand what was going on, next time please hire a cameraman and audio technician. I was expecting better from a site like this.
A cellphone is a poor excuse for a video camera.

Thanks for the proactive approach of bringing along chargers and extra batteries so that 7000 (5000 viewers sustained for over 2 hours, has got to be different people) of us could be inspired by the siyum.
God bless you among all those who work for the tzibur.

@Ebbs: Still didnt publish it, i wrote end tag joking at the end of my post, i am not serious, i really appreciated this feed.
Next time the organizers should get their act together and make a public stream online
27
August 2nd, 2012 at 12:40 am
@Ebbs: Stop complaining, it was a improvisation due to lack of options.

I can not express enough how amazing it is that what started as a favor/chessed for just 2 people, turned into a chessed for 90,000 people! Such an amazing lesson in ahavas yisroel. I am on such a high, the emotions in that stadium can never be replicated. I strongly recommend not missing it next time the achdus was tremendous. Thank you to all the sponsors and coordinators!
*yes my arm hurts very much! Lol. I’m glad people were able to join through me. It’s very humbling.

August 2nd, 2012 at 8:48 am
so if that’s correct then 90,000 @ the stadium + 90,000 @ the live feed wow!! 180,000 ppl total @ the siyum!!!!
I wonder if cbs knows that??

@jj1000: Thanks JJ, I was wondering about your hand last night, was thinking of offering some advil…
You did great! and I can only envy your zchus, you’re right that we should have attended in person, but for some of us that wasn’t an option.
Thanks a mil!

Thank you again
35
August 2nd, 2012 at 12:56 pm
JJ that was so kind of you, so many people that could not leave home for all those hours had the opportunity to be inspired, all because of your concern for others, what a zechus!

August 2nd, 2012 at 1:09 pm
Thanks so much for the live feed. Some of us women at BVG who couldn’t attend in person really appreciated the next best thing to being there.
