Good and bad news from Fiesta Bowl Enhanced TV Trial

Found the following article in Computerworld this morning:

computerworld.com

"Apparently, the idea was too good for its own good. Monstrous
traffic
forced ABC to turn users away early."

It was clear from the URL that this was just a test of a service
that will tie into ABC's Monday Night Football telecasts this year.
The good news was that the service definitely drew a lot of
interest. The bad news is that they'll need to spend more money
on infrastructure to support the number of people who want to
use it. I can live with that.
