WYSIWYG software like DreamWeaver and Google Pages make it simple for anyone to create their own professional-looking
websites. Digital cameras and cheap, easy-to-use non-linear editing software let anyone produce their own digital movies. With a cheap, plastic microphone and iTunes, anyone with something to say (or not) can create their own podcast. And now, anyone with a webcam and a broadband connection can broadcast over the Internet.
Ustream is a free service that lets you broadcast feeds live over the Internet. It’s like a live version of YouTube. You can also record your shows and share them with the public on your own Ustream “channel”. If you want to create a more polished production, you can download free software to your PC or Mac that let’s you overlay text, add PIP (picture in picture) capability, and broadcast a slideshow, computer desktop, or digital movie. You can also embed your Ustream channel’s media player to your website or blog.
