I’ve been watching most of the Copa Mundial from the comfort of my living room sofa and according to Gizmodo, I’m not alone. These are some of the stats according to the tech blog:
5,000,000,000: Viewers expected to watch the games
45000: Estimated number of network connections for TV production
2200: Hours of feeds produced
2000: Staff of TV productions
2000: Press, commentators
1300: Kilometers of cable for 12 venues
800: Camera positions
750: kilometers of audio/video cables
And what to do if your hypothetical sister wants to watch television while the partidos are on? Catch a live stream on the internet of course. But that’s an entirely different post.

It’s a wet dream come true for many a Latino, that is Shakira and soccer coming together. Shaki’s record label, Sony-BMG, announced that the Colombiana will be singing a very special version of her current hit with Fugee Wyclef Jean, Hips Don’t Lie, at the closing ceremony of the World Cup in Germany. The special performance is scheduled for July 9, 10 minutes before the Cup final in the Olympic Stadium of Berlin.
