Ustream

Students, here’s a neat little Web tool that you may find a use for one day. I’ve been working on figuring our how to utilize UStream to do Web casts for Presbyterian (U.S.A.). You will need a Twitter account and a Web cam The rest is pretty self explanatory. This might be a tool you could use for fun as well. USTREAM

The cool thing about it is that the basic service is free. You can stream video live, have a chat window and a running stream of Twitter hashtags. In January Ustream announced the release of an iPhone app for viewing the live streams… also, free. Isn’t the Web an awesome place. Be warned, it hasn’t gotten great reviews yet for the iPhone but I’m sure it will be updated and, in time, improve. Did I mention that it’s free. If you want to embed a player in your website of your dogs while you’re away at work, then do it. Just copy the code and drop it in. See what it looks like with no customization of any kind below.

To peak your interest, here’s a 24 hour feed of a puppy dog. Cute overload, friends.
