Chris & Chris streaming live via uStream at Web 2.0 Expo

UPDATE: I love Brightcove, but I’ve replaced the video I had below. Why? I was absolutely delighted with a new video sharing site, Viddler, that I came across in the Long Tail pavilion at Web 2.0 Expo. In some ways you can think of Viddler as the "Flickr of video" since they’ve provided A LOT of tools to add value to a video instead of just playing it. You need to check them out.

In the last 30 minutes of Web 2.0 Expo before heading off to the airport, I was watching Chris Pirillo and Chris Yeh (investor, founder and interim CEO of uStream) doing a live show via uStream with ~100 people in the chat room egging them on.

As I left I thought, "What the hell. I’m going to grab some video of them doing the show" and before I knew it I was in the show.

Live, streaming video from Justin.tv, Scoble and these guys is really rough around the edges…but the live aspect is incredibly profound especially when there’s an audience interacting live with those delivering the show!

Do you watch any of Chris Pirillo’s stuff? This guy has so damn much energy and is involved in so much it’s amazing.
