I'm really looking forward seeing how this app is used to live broadcast interactions with police. Confiscating a phone and deleting it's contents will no longer be such a hot option.

This seems like it has the potential to replace a great deal of what "news" does for us now. We can literally see <i>what</i> is happening, <i>when</i> it is happening, with no editing.<p>Building on fire? 10 phones point at it. Major disaster? 10 more phones. Amusing thing, anywhere? 10 phones, and it's archived for anyone to watch later.

I did exactly the same thing in 2008 for the Google Android Challenge. After starting the app, you would see two big buttons - browse and stream - and clicking on stream would automatically start, well, recording and streaming video. Only <i>after</i> you were done you were required to enter a description and optionally a category (concert, hot event, journalism, sightseeing, etc) of the video you just shot.<p>Everything would be geotagged and browsable by category, description and radius. Say you wanted to check out the clubs in a 1km radius - just filter by that criteria and see where the hot party is. There is some protest going on right now and you want to see what is happening? Check it out in real time. You are late for a concert and don't wanna miss out? Just watch one of the 50 streams being recorded live. Want to see how war really looks like? You can.<p>There was a gmaps overlay and some other features I don't remember anymore.<p>Anyways, I didn't get sponsored (the best 100 or so apps got $25k), and with 10 other competing live streaming services I kinda scrapped the project. Fun to see how history repeats itself, although I thought this was already a solved problem. Maybe I should have pressed on back then :)

There's kind of this race to be the first popular streaming video service.<p>I've been working on something myself this past summer for Android. The difficulty is that you have to create something that can stream video at a high quality despite a poor connection. People will tolerate compression artifacts in a live stream, but on replay the video should be full quality. I think I've come up to a solution for this, but I've had to dig through a bunch of compression research papers.<p>Of course, if my little hobby ever takes off at some point I don't know what I'll do -- without a good way to monetize quickly, there's no way I can afford the bandwidth of streaming video.

Pretty funny to see a video from a Color employee: <a href="http://www.tapin.tv/#video/132bdb3fbadc4fa0ae89a640ece9e918/1344465928" rel="nofollow">http://www.tapin.tv/#video/132bdb3fbadc4fa0ae89a640ece9e918/...</a>

Did YC know that Justin.tv already has a live broadcasting app? Doesn't YC have a policy against funding competing startups?

Wait, you got live stream video with SOUND without needing a $41M price tag?<p>And we get to see everyone testing out Tapin.tv live lolz...<p>Looks like fun, would love to see more tagging and sorting of what's available to watch - I'll look forward to more features to come! Great job guys!

I remember using Qik[1] on my Nokia N97 a few years ago and thinking the idea was awesome. Without wifi or bundled data packages it was kind of expensive, obviously not an issue anymore.<p><a href="http://qik.com/" rel="nofollow">http://qik.com/</a>

If I could just live stream without saving it at the end I might use this, but I can't stand it if it automatically saves. Same issue I had with Qik.

Excellent work. Live video streaming has wide applications, glad to see you made it so easy to share spontaneous moments.

I really like the focus on geography as a way of organizing content.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is very similar to what color.com ended up doing, right?

How do these YC/Techcrunch post gain such massive amounts of votes in the first 20min? With no comments? Already 14 at the 13 minute mark.
