Would they call it “Live Video” though for fear it is confused with that other site… the one with LiveVideo? lol

Nalts: Do you not have pants that fit because they are all too big for you since you’ve gotten so svelte and attractive from your “Nalts gets fit” campaign?

Marquis wins best comment of the week for #6, but that me because Sukatra’s reminded me I don’t have pants that fit.

That sounds like one long drawn out boring ass vlog. How painful! I love the lack of interaction that is involved. People need to get out more.

while I think there’s value in stickcam and great potential for live web cam; interviews, politics, how to… a good number of these live shows on blog.tv [very long rant] just STOP IT! STOP IT NOW! it’s little more than live ego masturbation. CUT IT OUT!

Live YT is a very bad idea, IMHO. I watch when I can & one of the things I love about Tivo is that it allows me to watch TV shows I want to watch when I want to watch. That’s the same thing I like about networks putting their shows up on the Internet for me to watch whenever I can. As much as I say I don’t have a life, I guess I have too much of a life to watch Live YT if it is not a convenient time. Also, YT videos benefit much from editing, which would be lost if everyone streams live.

Unlike sukatra, if you post live video of yourself walking around picking your nose, I think I’ll pass.

I really like this video you pointed out. Everyone should click on this link and watch the video about the guy who draws a picture around the world.

Live Streaming on YouTube is going to be a total disaster. If you think we are having issues with spam and harassment now, just wait until youtube has a live section.

Of course people are going to use it to broadcast movies and sports just like they did to justin.tv

I think the only thing that might be interesting about YTlive is the 24/7 live cam..It could be a new twist on “Reality TV”.

Other than that, I see no real difference than Paltalk or Skype. And those lose their novelty after about 2 uses.
