How to stream the London 2012 Olympics

There have been several HOWTOs posted regarding streaming the 2012 Olympics using HTTP / SOCKS proxies via SSH and other similar methods. None of these actually work using the latest Flash on Mountain Lion (with Firefox, Chrome or Safari). Additionally, the third-party streaming sites don't provide BBC's amazing interface, which lets you quickly skip to individual competitors and events. However, setting up an OpenVPN server does work, with some tweaks. You'll get the exact same UX that people in England receive.

• Get a Linode VM in the UK. The 512MB server for $20 works just fine. (If you want to use my referral link, go for it: http://bit.ly/OuzdVe)

• Follow the standard OpenVPN installation documentation. (Basically, 'apt-get install openvpn' or 'yum install openvpn' and then follow these docs: http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/documentation/howto.html). For an OS X client, I prefer Viscosity: http://www.thesparklabs

Sharing the document with "People at <my domain> can find and view" permission:

• will make it possible for users to search for the document in Google Docs If the user knows the name or part of the name of the document, he can enter it in the Search field at the top of the Google Docs view and click on 'Search <my domain> Docs', If the user doesn't know the name, he can click on 'Show search options' to find other ways to find the document.
• will add the document to users' Docs view once opened (under 'All Items' and 'Opened by me')
• to avoid users' Google Docs view to be overflown by files they do not need, the file created by another user will not appear in the Google Docs view until searched and opened.

If you would like the document to appear in the user's Google Docs view without the user having to search for it first, you will need to share the document with him on an individual basis or with a group he is part of.

A quick way to do so is to add the document to a folder shared with the user. For mo
