I’m hoping to go via this contest that Vestax and PSSL put on. DJ’s have to post up a YouTube video using the Vestax ITCH which is a controller (kind of like turntables).

I normally use turntables but I can’t afford to get out to Miami right now and I need to get my name out there so I thought this would be a good way to do it! Hope you guys enjoy my entry and any feedback would greatly be appreciated.

Cheers!

The problem with Y! Live is that it’s boring now. Nobody want’s to watch people video chat, unless they are naked, and Y! Live doesn’t need to turn into one of those sites.

We need some 24/7 live content. Team up with news sites to offer live news. Live sports would be great. Team up with a major sports league. Team up with amateur sports leagues, even help them setup. Y! Live could probably get the NHL as is not too popular down there. It would be great for the NHL to promote the sport, and it would be great for Y! Live. Team up with a CBS, which already offers their shows online. There is so much potential here, it is mindblowing. Lifecasting is great but gets boring after a couple minutes.

Y! Live is the best Live platform I’ve seen on the web thus far, but competition will be coming from the likes of Youtube soon.

We will probably recommend Yahoo Live to all DJing.com users as well as it is really the easiest setup. But would it be possible to have two different levels of encoding. The current one is pretty much OK for video, but not for audio especially for concerts or DJ sets. It would be nice to let the users decide if they prefer to have a decent framerate for video or a decent quality for audio…

We are running a benefit concert on Saturday Night (Australian Eastern Standard Time) that we will be broadcasting live on Y! Live. The channel is http://live.yahoo.com/voiceinthedark.

The concert is to raise awareness of the sex trade and prostitution in Thailand. Many of these girls and boys are forced to work as prostitutes, and for as little as ten dollars men can do what they want with them. Over 200,000 women are bound by prostitution in Thailand.

The profits from the evening will go towards the Tamar Centre which helps young women get off of the streets. The concert is free but you can donate money or purchase a CD. All the profits go toward these women and giving them a better life.

There is more about the benefit concert and the organisation putting on the conference at http://www.voiceforthevoiceless.com.au.

Y! Live is going to make it possible for us to broadcast the concert and raise more awareness to people about the sex trade and prostitution in Thailand.
