How Do You Get Your Camera to Work on Stickam on a Mac?
Stickam is a free video publishing service for streaming live video from a computer to the Internet. Once you create a free Stickam account, you can then send live recordings made using your computer and a Web cam to the Internet. Macintosh users can either use the iSight camera built into their machine, or an external Web cam for Stickam video streaming. Before using Stickam, you may need to properly configure the settings on your Macintosh.
