The J.C.VidStream (The Y! Live Video Streaming Experiment)

February 9, 2008 in All Posts,Announcements with 8 Comments

Y! LIVE logoYahoo! recently launched Y! Live, a free broadcast service that makes it easy for webcam-empowered folks to create streaming video programming.

Knowing full well that I have a face for radio, I’ve done the “early adopter” thing anyway and created a streaming video channel at Y! Live. The way this works: When I click a button on my laptop, I’ll stream video/audio to my channel page. If you want to join the shenanigans live as I broadcast, you’ll engage me on my Y! Live channel page. Stupid-simple to use.

Of course, my involvement hinges on your interest. Would you dig seeing me dabble in streaming video, and interact with 7th Son fans (including you) in real-time? Tell me in the comments here. If I snag enough interest, I’ll roll out a pilot broadcast and see where it goes. Speak up and let me know!

    Sure, Hutch… we’d love to see you dance! But I’ll let you chose the music.

    Sounds pretty cool. I like the ways you are branching out into new media. I wouldn’t mind seeing some of your Ultra Creative interviews as an iChat video or something similar.

    Of course! Then again, I am but one of your Phoenix groupies, so what else would my answer be? And if there’s going to be dancing, I’ve got a spare hip scarf you can borrow! It’ll make noise, too!

    This would be giddy, indeed.

    I have suggested it before… :P

    Sounds like fun. Now you have to figure out a broadcast time to get the maximum participants. It’s gonna be the middle of the night for someone somewhere!
