If you’re in the U.S., you’re probably busy right now preparing for the New Year’s countdown.  Either you’re on your way to Times Square to witness the annual midnight ball drop or you’re at home preferring to watch the ball drop online.

If you’re at home and you have a Hulu account, you can watch it through Hulu’s live stream of  Times Square New Year’s Eve 2010. You can even grab the embed code for the live stream and put it in your blog/site (like we did).

Hulu is hosting the live stream direct from Times Square from 10 p.m. EST to 12:15 a.m. EST. Hulu’s coverage will include views of Times Square and the crystal ball dropping plus ambient sounds from the “crossroads of the world.”

And here’s a brief instruction from Hulu, in case you’re watching the ball drop online from their site:

When the live feed begins Thursday night, you’ll be able to access the festivities from Hulu’s home page (we’ll provide a direct link) or from our Spotlight; section (just click on the “explore” button beneath the section related to Times Square 2010 to launch a pop-out window).

If you’d rather watch the ball drop online from other sites, check out Search Engine Journal’s post on some other places where you can watch the ball drop online.

With that, we would like to greet you all a Happy New Year!
