Qik for the iPhone
ByJohn
At MobileCamp Vancouver this past weekend, I thought it might be fun to try out Qik.com‘s iPhone app. It’s currently only available for use on jailbroken iPhones (via Cydia). While David was talking about some iPhone tricks, I streamed him live via wifi to Qik and we had it on the projector in the room….
DIY Steadicam + Nikon D90 Video

There’s a growing trend of internet video providing a more educational form of entertainment which caters to an (dare I say) intellectual audience who is looking for knowledge and meaning while they entertain themselves. The quick and early adopters are now complimenting their traditional text based content with video media to offer visitors a choice. An interesting example I came across of this is the artcollectorsguild.com. This is a small company selling artwork which compliments nearly the entirety of its content with video.
