U.S.: Will & Kate’s Excellent Adventure: Big online, but not the biggest
- 5.3M number of pageviews the Royal Wedding got per minute this morning — impressive, but not one of the best ever
- 10.3M number of pageviews per minute the World Cup (and the longest Wimbledon match ever) got back in June
- 4.3M number of pageviews the 2008 election, where Obama coasted to victory on hope and change, earned source
- » As a video event, usage was high: At its peak, the event was larger than Egypt but these comparisons are a little difficult — all of the top online events except for the 2008 election happened since June of last year. That said, what’s notable is that lots of people watched the event live on the Internet. Around 300,000 people watched the wedding on Livestream at its peak.
