Thanks for the mention. We really appreciate when people take the time to have a look and write us up.
As for capacity, CoveritLive is built to handle hundreds of thousands of simultaneous readers so capacity will never be an issue for us. It is not built on Flash or even strictly Ajax. Our Apple issue was thought to be capacity related but we later discovered it was a QA issue on our end as we were only 60 days out of beta when the Steve Jobs speech happend.
We honestly admitted the error on our part and have had great growth since then even among those who were impacted that day.

That's really great news to hear. While I had problems using CoverItLive to do our live blogging of the Steve Jobs keynote, it wasn't eough to put me off the platform.
I was really impressed by CoverItLive and I WILL use it again for the next big event we live blog over at IT PRO (http://www.itpro.co.uk).
I had considered it for today's Windows Server launch, but it just wasn't worth it, there wasn't any material to warrant a live blog, but we have some events later in March that we will use it for.
