The plan being we're actually going to start doing embed code to let other people stream

our stuff from other websites/forums in the future as we are wrapping up some new bandwidth plans around these parts.

Will it work? We dont know!

Attention Shacknews Comedy and Voting People]b

My little brother is performing tonight in the Finals for the National Comedy Competition.

You'll be able to watch his set live later tonight and vote here:

http://www.rooftopcomedy.com/events/college/watch/ReidFaylorXavierRegional

It all begins this evening around 8:30 EST, with online voting open for about two hours after. I'm not sure when he will take the stage, but I think it's some time in the middle, around 9:30 EST.

Currently, the video at that link the bit that many of you enjoyed and voted for, which propelled him to the Finals. You'll be able to tell when there's a new video, because he's now using a violin.

You can find more details and such here:
