Well… I’m messing with Ustream.tv and CamTwist (a Mac application) to do a live broadcast today. Nothing too special, mostly just testing the limits of the system.

You might see me in action. You might see my desktop whilst I work away. Or you might just see a bunch of clips I’ve loaded up for playback.

Tune in… Today only! Too late. You missed the fun.

UPDATE: After a full afternoon of broadcasting nothing important, I have to say I’m impressed. I really liked the simplicity of Ustream, especially coupled with two Mac applications: CamTwist (which lets me pick different media sources like my web cam, my DV cam, my desktop, saved movies, or slide shows, and lets me add effects, images, text, etc… all on the fly) and Sound Flower. With Sound Flower I was able to jack my audio out, directly to my audio in so that pre-recorded movies could stream with sound over Ustream. The only bad part with Sound Flower is no “monitor” to actually hear what’s streaming. Guess I need another computer to listen in.

All in all, I had a couple dozen people pop in and out, and a few positive comments from folks who see the potential of this.

In the future, I do plan to stream some other things (and give people plenty of warning that I will be broadcasting). Today was just an experiment. Kind of fun too.
