If you actually visit my blog (http://www.coreydegrandchamp.com) you’ll notice the top left corner has changed a bit, I’ve switched from using Stickam as a streaming agent to uStream.tv
uStream.tv is a much better service, with less hick-ups, freezes, downtime, and is based much more around a “techie” community than a “MySpace for webcams” type site that Stickam was.
In the following days I’ll be setting up new cameras around my study, right now I’ve only had available one cam to me, which was built into my MacBook, so my live time has been very limited. By next week I should have two separate cameras positioned in my office and I’ll be able to switch between the two on the fly in the uStream.tv interface. It’s exciting for a geek like myself.
My live time is going to increase dramatically in the next few days when my new cameras arrive in the mail, so be sure to visit my actual blog and check it out! You can also click the menu in the lower right corner of the stream, and go to my uStream.tv profile, and join a live chat with me even, and you don’t even need to register for anything! I don’t anticipate many people to use that portion of the service, but if you do it’d be nice.
PS. I’ve decided to start doing reviews on AppStore applications, so look forward to some of those coming soon!

Ustream better than stickam? bahahahah. as if.
That would explain why Leo Laporte who is an actual professional went with stickam.
Perhaps its ur crappernet connection?

Stickam is flooded with 13 year old girls, I’m constantly bothered by “friend requests”.
Stickam is like MySpace for people who have webcams, and child predators, uStream is much more “professional” and less annoying.
Also, Leo Laporte is a joke, he used to know what he was talking about, but times have changed.

By the way… Chris Pirillo uses uStream, and in my (and nearly everybodys) opinion, he’s far more intelligent than Leo was.
