The 82nd Academy Awards will be held this Sunday.\u00a0 The event is telecast live worldwide and the Academy claims it will be watched by over one billion viewers, making it the fourth most watched live television broadcast, after the Super Bowl, Olympics Opening Ceremony and World Cup Final.<\/p>\n
If you are one of the many billions who can’t watch the Oscars live on TV, I’ve found a couple of mobile sites where you can follow the festivities using your mobile browser.<\/p>\n
The official Oscars site at m.oscar.com<\/a> was created by Netbiscuits<\/a> for The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences<\/span> and ABC, Inc.<\/span>, the official Oscars broadcaster in the US. It lists all of this year’s nominees and promises to have live coverage starting at 8 PM EST on Oscar night. It’s not clear if the live coverage will be streaming video or text, but I suspect the later.<\/p>\n

According to mobilizedtv.com<\/a> one site that will definitely stream live Oscars videos to mobiles is AP Live Entertainment<\/em> . It’s a new partnership between the Associated Press and Livestream.com which launch with a special Oscars Red Carpet<\/em> show Sunday from 6 to 8 PM EST. The show’s main draw will be live streaming video of celebrities walking up the red carpet as they enter the Kodak Theater for the event. AP reporters will also post live updates during the awards ceremony and from Oscar after parties well into the evening.<\/p>\n
