Live was announced and I had given it a look but didn’t have a good webcam to use to truly test it out. I absolutely love the UI - I find it stunning. And it was extremely easy to setup my own channel - all I had to do was sign in with my Yahoo! ID and create my channel. I was up and running with my channel within a minute. But like I said - nothing to broadcast without a webcam. [...] […] Y! Live was announced and I had given it a look but didn’t have a good webcam to use to truly test it out.

I'm assuming that these basic features are in the works, but it seems that they should have been implemented before this launched. There are a few features that would make this service better.

It says the camera is in use by another application. But I can watch others people videos without any problem.

I've got accounts on those other video sites. I don't have the latest version of IE, because it doesn't run on Windows 2000. The absolute latest SeaMonkey build works on ALL of those other sites just fine. So does IE6 for that matter. This looks all very exciting and neat - but how about some idea about when it's going to even be functional for everyone? I see no help links anywhere on any Y! Live page. Sadly, I'm not impressed. I would hope for far more from the 'old hands of the internet' that you would expect Yahoo to be. I believe in choice, so I would actually like to see more functional options. Competition is good - but to compete your stuff has to work. Oh, and being greeted in Spanish? Hola? My account info places me squarely in the United States, where English is the primary language - and the one I chose when I made my account over 10 years ago. No part of Yahoo seems to allow you to adjust this anymore. Come on folks. If nothing else, stick the "beta" next to Y! Live where it ought to be. Uh, yeah…

As it is, its still a killer service. Thanks For Developers: A snippet that I could place on my homepage to indicate if I am broadcasting or not would be a useful addition.
