BlogTV, Ustream.tv and Stickam
Some of the YouTubers are branching out into live broadcasts. On BlogTV viewers can post questions from a chat room. Here's a show that starts on Thursdays at 7 p.m. EST and Sundays at 9 p.m. EST. SuperEd86 started a little early tonight. Prior broadcasts are available if you scroll down. He broadcasts from Portland, Oregon. The chat room comments appear at the bottom of the player when you watch. This is his channel on YouTube.
His schtick is bit in the Jim Carrey direction. He's probably calmer live than in his YouTube comedy videos. Of the videos I've watched thus far, he mentions that he was born in Latvia and that his parents spoke Russian around him when he was child.
There is also a site with a similar service called Ustream.tv. BlogCatalog has a channel on the site. Being a participant on that site, I’ve tuned into some broadcasts on BC’s channel. So far, Erica O'Grady has broadcast four discussions about social media. Again there is a chatroom for viewers to ask questions.
Another site I found, because of a YouTuber, is Stickcam. This site is geared to those folks who enjoy webcam interaction. Thus, I really haven't explored the site much. Help walks you through the setup.
