I have just discovered something quite exciting. It’s similar to chat roulette in that people can watch you live, however, justin.tv give you your own channel to broadcast from.
You can log into the site and attach a webcam or mobile phone (with a video function, of course) to the software and start broadcasting yourself immediately. During the 20 minutes that I was live I had managed to attract 23 viewers that were IMing me with advice on how to block people and asking where I was from, it was quite overwhelming at first.
If you are not shy,a bit bored and fancy broadcasting something live then it’s quite entertaining. They do have a warning banning lewd and violent behaviour luckily and I was told that your channel is pulled quickly if they detect you breaking the rules. If you can behave yourself however, then your channel will go out to 250 countries live, so if you fancy your chances at stardom then this could be the start of something beautiful! Your sessions are recorded and you can send a link so that people can watch you live or a link to the recording of the session so they can watch it at a later date. It hooks up to facebook, twitter and the usual.
There is an option to make your channel private and to put an access code on it so if you want just your friends to see what your doing then that can be arranged.
On the whole it's a great online find that could potentially be a lot of fun!
