More people than ever are surfing the Web while watching big TV events like the Super Bowl and the Academy Awards, according to
new data from Nielsen. The company found that 13.3% of those watching the
Oscars broadcast in the U.S. this year went online, up from 8.7% in 2009. Likewise, 14.5% went online while tuned into the Super Bowl compared to 12.8% last year. Facebook, Google and Yahoo, not
surprisingly, were the most popular sites for two-screen viewers during the shows.

Would be happy to do an interview to discuss the bigger project concepts Mark.
