Virginia Senate streaming video link

Starting today, Wednesday January 9, you can watch Virginia's Senate proceedings live on the General Assembly's web site at http://legis.state.va.us/. You can either hear or view the 2008 Senate session. The video option has a limited number of streams available, so this service is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Microsoft Media Player version 9.0 or above is required. Both services are free and no passwords are needed.

To access the 2008 proceedings:
1. Go to the GA web site: http://legis.state.va.us/.

2. Highlight "Senate" - located on the menu on left hand side of the website.

3. In the drop-down menu that appears, click "View the Senate Session"

4. On the next page, click "Session Audio" to hear the session or click "View Session" to view the session.
