    Live streaming of events should be almost standard practice now.

    Yes, they should; the reality is, though, that many live events only think about streaming at the last minute.

    In a corporate setting, the thought occurs when a key individual has to be at a remote location, so there’s a last-minute scramble to provide a stream of the event.

    For weddings, graduation or other “one-off” events, I suspect the critical mass will be when the venue wraps the connectivity into an overall venue rental package (and not at some astronomical price).

    It’s a slow process that requires a bit of thought, and one that I’d hoped had been addressed 4-5 years ago. Here’s hoping we can get there quickly.

    Great subject, looking forward to lots of great advice and information.

    Serving the resort beaches of NW Florida with LIVE Internet wedding coverage has allowed me to experience the bridal couple’s thrill of sharing their special moment with those who couldn’t attend in person.

    The technology for LIVE broadcasting is now here and I have been using ComF5 for the past year with positive results.

    Anyone with a laptop computer with a G3 connect, Adobe Media Live Encoder (free download), camera, firewire and a ComF5 account can share their event with the world.

    Anyone with LIVE event stories, let’s share. Who knows we might even consider doing it LIVE!
