Apple WWDC 2011 Keynote Busts our Live Visitor Record Charts!

That's right ladies and gentlemen, we here at SlashGear are proud to announce that we've just today made a brand new record for our site's live feed viewership. Not only have we beaten previous records, we've beaten them by a country mile, collecting nearly twice the live viewers that we'd had for previous press events such as the Apple keynote on iCloud, iOS 5, and OS X Lion that occurred today. First we'd like to thank you, the readers, then we'd like to literally tell you where we stand!

Where our previous high for live feed viewership during a special event was a still very impressive 4,000,000 viewers at its peak, today we secured 8,698,232 users, and it seemed like they all had a pretty good time! If you were with us today at the usual address http://live.slashgear.com/, we thank you for participating and hope that you'll stick with us for future events as well as everyday news on everything tech and gadget goodness!

Also remember to head over to our Facebook page for all sorts of exclusive content and contests and candy and punch and pie! AND stick with us here in the main news feed for all the E3 coverage you can handle all week!
