Prediction: Lifecasting With Your Camera Phone
April 5th, 2007 ·
Prediction:
A year from now we will be using our camera phones (in video mode) to “lifecast” selected events to a network of friends. It’ll work something like this:
Me:
Go to camera phone mode and hit a broadcast option. Optionally include a description of the event - e.g. “Griffin is walking for the first time.”
My Friends:
Receive a text message that I’m broadcasting an event called “Griffin is walking for the first time.” Even better, they would hear about it through Twitter. They can click a link to watch the event in real-time. If they decline, they can come back later to watch it on the web. All of my lifecast events would be on that web page, similar to a personalized YouTube channel. Only my friends would be able to view the videos unless I designate them as public.
There will be all kinds of products built around this - lanyards to carry the cell phone so that you can do hands-free broadcasting from you point if view, tiny camera attachments/extensions that can be clipped on (e.g. to a baseball hat like Justin.tv), car dashboard mounts to allow you to broadcast as you’re driving your car, etc.
So who’s going to build this? Or am I just drinking too much Justin.tv Kool-Aid?
Update:
Whoa - Radar.net is already there. See it in action on ScobleShow.

“In Odeo’s case, taking venture capitalists’ money increased the stakes early on. Mr. Williams says that raised expectations for the start-up, making it more difficult to change tacks as required — something he did with Blogger…”

“…it’s not too different from sharing photos & video over the web (something most of us do). The only difference is that it’s immediate, which makes it much more powerful. The immediacy makes it a shared experience…”
