It started at 1pm EST, live. You people in the US get stuck with a taped broadcast from NBC at 8PM EST or something, unless you live in the north and get the CBC signal and got to watch the whole shebang live, or the rebroadcast at 7PM.

the opening ceremony was awesome!

Nah, we did it heaps better in Sydney. I was watching it, and when the Parade of Nations started, I was like "Is that it?!?". Seemed very short, and dull.

Nah, I was actually refering to the ceremony being short, not the Parade of Nations (that bit is always long and boring as hell).

I still have a rush from the OC. It was some of the best free entertainment on TV I have seen in years. The torch lighting and the firework display was off the wall. And they had the nerve to say tourist won't show up for these games.
