Barack Obama’s inauguration proved a record-breaking day for CNN.com.
The website had more than 136million page views by 3.30pm (US eastern time) yesterday.
It also served 21.3m live video streams – breaking the previous record, 5.3m, set on the US presidential election day.
Of those 21.3m, CNN.com’s live stream was watched by 1.3m people concurrently, just before Obama’s address.
