Obama Rally Boston 9/4/08

Obama Rally Boston 9/4/08 - Originally uploaded on flickr by stevegarfield.

Head over to qik.com/stevegarfield to watch the ten videos I broadcast live from the Obama rally last night in Boston. I started out using the ATT 3G network and then switched to the free WiFi.

People how were watching live could chat with me live as I streamed and I could ajust my coverage based on their comments.

Best moment, when the viewers guided me over to the C-SPAN camera nd I talked to the C-Span cmaera guy for a moment and tehn got my N95 on C-SPAN... Ha ha. When I got home and listened to the audio, I was amazed at the good quality. Steve-Span!

Today I was amazed by what Steve Garfield and CashHustleInc did - live 2-way video conferencing usig Qik.

How you ask? It was ridiculously simple - now that I think about it. Steve had 2 browser windows open side-by-side one with his video stream and the other with the stream from CashHustleInc. and CashHustleInc had the same. It was amazing to watch as they started this and then invited their Twitter friends to chat and all of a sudden we we were all chatting and experiencing the video conference going on between the two.

Here at Qik HQ, we talk about the million and one uses of Qik. Well, thanks to Steve Garfield and CashHustleInc we found yet another one. Pretty darn cool!

Yay!
