How to Connect to Ustream

You need a webcam to broadcast video on Ustream.C

Ustream.tv offers users free Internet-TV channels from which they can broadcast live shows or previously recorded sessions. Whether you are you a pro gamer who wants to share your skills with the world, or a businessman who wants to use Ustream to connect with your clients, you can access Ustreams services free of charge. One catch, ads will run on your stream once in awhile. If you want ad-free service, you can pay a monthly fee directly to Ustream.
