So what makes you guys different from justin/ustream/stickam?


We do have the public broadcasting like Justin.tv and UStream but we also have a focus on creating networks of friends that you can chat with and video call.

When broadcasting you do have the option of opening it up to the world like the other sites but you can also limit the broadcast to just friends or even just specific people.

More stuff in the works but we can't really talk about it yet :-P


I saw the comment re: wowza, you guys aren't going to use p2p over rtmfp? Seems pretty essential if you want to nail the person to person calling with Flash.


Yeah the video guys are working on that at the moment.


Re: Wowza, p2p and rtmfp. All in good time. We have lower fruit to pick at the moment :)


The chatbox went too funny after two guys did the chair race http://i55.tinypic.com/257pshy.png seem to be busy fixing the issues now - http://i51.tinypic.com/2rh4a4o.png


Yes. Perhaps there should have been more programming and fewer chair races :-P


Using their tech to show us them building their tech. This works on so many levels. I'm waiting for the Inception theme to start playing.


Funnily enough we do have Mind Heist (the trailer music from Inception) playing in the office :-P


Ok guys, it's been an interesting day and now we are heading off to bed. Thanks for zany chat antics over the course of the day ;-)


Great work


We did something similar to this at tinychat a long time ago. Lifecasting definitely isnt for me :)

Nice site, good luck with it.


Thanks. Good luck with your next venture ;-)


Hi guys. I'm a founder and just signed up to say hello and answer questions that people might have.


Not bad but the guy in the black shirt didn't dance and now I hate it.


Hey, you can always broadcast a dance!

PS. I'm not the guy in the black shirt :-P


I'm helping to setup their AWS infrastructure.


Cool site guys. When did you launch kondoot?


The new site has been live for two weeks. We are still working out the rough edges but it's been fun and there are plenty of new things coming out soon!


these guys seem to like each other
