Just as the last aftershocks of the live blogging debate I instigated start to subside comes live Video casting tomorrow morning at the Web 2.0 conference. My Podtech pals Scoble and Jeremiah will be walking around with a UStream TV video system just like Justin.
Justin is sort of a reverse Truman Show. In the incredible Jim Carey movie, Truman did not realize his entire life was being arranged for a TV audience. Justin is the audience as he records everything he witnesses.
I think what PodTech is doing has more real-time application and the implications to video citizen journalism are significant. I just find irony in it all. At the New Communications Forum, I was accused of disrupting a speaker by the clicking of my keyboard as I live blogged.
I just wonder what these very same people are going to think when they see these geeks with cameras walking into the conference presentations. What happens when UStream gets popular and there are as many cameras in the room as there are clickers on keyboards.
Heh.
