Streaming Room is a very strange video application:
This web 2.0 application allows to create virtual chat rooms with live video streams of your very own choice.
Concretely:
1) You create your chat room.
2) You select live video streams you want to add to your video streaming room (out of all live video streams available on Ustream.tv)
3) You can then invite friends, colleagues, partners, customers to watch video streams with you and to chat in live.
It is hard to find how this type of service can be used, but I’m sure it is possible to find interesting ideas where this web 2.0 service can bring a real added value.
Video conferencing with multiple attendees is possible with a text area. But I think profesional video conference providers are already doing far better than that…
Streaming Room could allow to follow a sportive event with different camera angles and to chat live about it with connected friends or supporters…
If you have any concrete idea, feel free to propose it within comments…

This is an interesting idea to find roommates…
Indeed, looking for roommates it is hard to rely on simple classified ads. It is necessary to meet people to see if we find possible to live or at least share a flat with them. Otherwise this could lead to a real nightmare for everyone…
RoomLinker is a website allowing to publish videos to find roomates and take contact with possible attendees for room or flat sharing. If you are looking for a room or the ideal roommate, you can make a presentation in video, explain the way you live, and publish it for free on RoomLinker.
This is a great idea to use the potential of web videos in communicating with others !
RoomLinker is the English version of the French website VisioColoc.com.
The team behind these websites is also publishing a blog (in French) on http://www.visiocoloc.com/blog
