[HacktionLab] Mobile video blogging advice needed

[planet-mail at aktivix.org]

re streaming live, assume you've seen the services:
http://qik.com
http://www.ustream.tv/mobile

shows live stream from your phone on their website as it comes in and  
archives it - qik has embedable player.

look fwd to hearing what you've been playing with,
dave
