How to Upload to Ustream
Ustream TV was launched in March 2007 with the purpose of creating a platform for those serving abroad in the military to communicate with family and loved ones. The website now allows anyone with a webcam and Internet access to broadcast an event live from their computer. Users may also choose to have a live ongoing broadcast of a particular area; for example, a bird's nest as eggs begin to hatch. It is a relatively straightforward process to create an account and begin broadcasting with Ustream.
