They seem to be having some techincal difficulties, but Queensland Australia have organised 12 hours worth of live-feeds from (and on/in) the Great Barrier Reef! I'm waiting for them to come back online. Its in celebration of World Oceans Day :)

I was wondering if anyone was gonna post this! I was watching it for quite a while...it seems to have gone offline again though :( I'm American but I lived in Townsville for three years studying at JCU. I already recognized a couple people I know, including Julie from Reef HQ Aquarium where I used to volunteer. A friend I used to help out with his PhD shark research is also supposed to be coming on to talk about sharks! Man I loved living there and diving in the GBR. Aaarrrrgh I feel so homesick now.

They had 7 different broadcast changes. You had to go to the main youtube channel page and hit refresh to see it live and also stay with the live broadcast. That link that I posted was a direct link to one of their broadcasts, but I guess it's cause youtube has a live video limit, they had to change to new video streams about every two hours.
