Sort of Off topic warning,  not that we get so much traffic here that it's a 
problem - ha.

/Drive is trying something that I think will become a trend.  Streaming hours 
and hours of a build of a 911 by 'RWB' a Japanese tuner who is growing in 
popularity online because of these videos and because he personally does each 
car by flying around the world and doing them himself (mostly body mods).

I can't find part 1 but here is part 2 and it goes on from here.   The camera 
is shaky and audio is bad, but I think we are seeing what will become a trend.

Aparrently watching others play video games is a huge thing and a company 
called Twitch was purchased for hundreds of millions when they became the 
dominant player in this world of watching others play video games. And Twitter 
and Facebook seem to be doubling down on live streams according to this 
article:  http://techcrunch.com/2016/03/25/live-is-having-a-moment/

I wonder if this trend will expand to cars and people will start streaming 
their garage time for others to share with.  Periscope, Twitter and Facebook 
all seem to be able to do this easily these days.  I used to work for an early 
Internet startup that did live streaming and it is amazing to me how much more 
expensive and difficult it was to put a live stream out there than it is today. 
Glad to see times are changing and everyone can be a media company now (for 
better or worse).
