Streaming Rooms : multiple video streams in chat room
November 4, 2007
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…
