UStream.tv live from my iPhone!

I\’ve been a fan of UStream.tv ever since I discovered them a little over a year ago.

Every Wednesday, I do a live show with my co-host Dan Nickerson. It\’s called Joel Comm LIVE!

UStream has proven to be innovative as they continue to add cool features for broadcasters, including the ability to bring in co-hosts from other locations, add titles and also play YouTube or local videos within your program.

About a month or so ago UStream released an app that would let you view their programming on your iPhone, provided you were on a local area network.

Well a week ago I was invited to test out the best of their broadcast app that would allow you to send llive video to UStream using the iPhone\’s camera!

I was able to test this out today and I am very pleased with the results.

Here is a screen shot taken while I was broadcasting. It\’s a basic interface, but I\’m sure there will be more options.

Check out a few minutes of my test stream.

Oh, and UStream is now playing pre-roll advertisements. So watch it and I make a few pennies. Yippee.

From the UStream site, it appears that you can download the app if your iPhone is jailbroken.

However, my iPhone is NOT jailbroken and I was able to install the app given to me with no problems.

I am certain I will be using the live UStream.tv broadcaster via my iPhone. Stay tuned!
