i can go from another organizations web link ( our saviour new york , which should by osny on livestream ) straight to their live event on the app . but , even though i have this organization marked as
following
in this app when i try to find them they are not there ? in fact it doesn ' t show me following anyone ? very disappointing ! the other weird thing is i cannot find this organization when i do a search in the app . but like i said , if i go from their site i can go straight to the live events on livestream ?

when mogulus launched in 2007 , few people understood its name . most people still don’t because , quite frankly , it doesn’t make a lot of sense . or i should say , didn’t make a lot of sense — because beginning today , the service has been completely rebranded as something much more obvious : livestream .

livestream - - which says that its technology allows
anybody on the internet who can connect a video camera to a computer
to instantly stream live video worldwide 24 / 7 via their own urltoken channels , or to video players embedded on their own web sites or social - networking profiles - - claims that over 300 , 000 people have registered and launched live video channels using its platform since its 2007 launch .
livestream is doing for live video streaming what youtube did for on - demand video clips ,
mogulus / livestream co - founder and ceo , max haot , said in a prepared statement .
while we didn ' t invent live streaming , we ' re removing the barriers - - making live video production and streaming easy and affordable for anybody to use and experience . consider how the demand for connecting communities and information in real time on the internet has grown through simple services like twitter . . . and , that ' s just texting ! it ' s easy to see that live video streaming is well positioned to become a key force moving us toward richer , more immersive content experiences and communication .
whether you ' re in the studio or on the street , the livestream broadcaster pro works great for encoding your video footage on - the - go . its light - weight mobile - friendly design , along with its easy - to - use functionality and reliability , make the broadcaster pro a must - have piece of hardware for anyone wanting to deliver seamless high - quality live video streams to your channel .
as we speak , the foo fighters are playing a live show on facebook , live from their own studio 606 , for their fans on the site . the concert is utilizing the same live - stream module we have seen in used in a variety of situations in the past , including cnn ' s live stream of barack obama ' s inauguration . this is combined with a live video module from livestream to complete the experience .
mogulus has seen some good growth over the past year in terms of visitors to its site , according to numbers from compete . i suspect that will rise greatly with this new domain . but it’s the features that make users stick around , and this move to one - click publishing is a good idea — keep it simple , stupid , and all that . haot also notes that livestream has over 1 , 000 paying pro members , the premium service it launched last year .
noto also said that 7 out of 10 of the most - followed twitter accounts are musicians , so the company is cashing in on the pairing . this partnership could very well pave the way for even more concert livestream deals in the future – you’d think youtube , facebook , or twitch may also want to hop on board . but , if you’re more interested in physically being at the concert yourself , keep in mind that live nation’s $ 20 deal is on for a bit longer .

i enjoy using lifestream from tv to watch our church broadcast when i’m away . however i find it puzzling that i don’t see my followed account front and center when i open the livestream app on tv nor do i find a way to quickly view all my followed accounts . seems like a reasonable assumption i’d focus on those when using the app right ? i have only the option to search making we wonder the point of “following” any account other than the emails i receive ( why not phone push notification ? ) . email seems a strange medium for “take action now” communication .

the foo fighters are playing a live performance from studio 606 for their fans on facebook .
this is a really cool thing for the band to do for its fans and something i hope we see more of in the future . as the foo fighters play , they are keeping an eye on the stream of status updates coming in , sometimes responding to comments and taking song requests .
there is an undeniable trend of live events moving online . the potential audience that can be reached is fairly significant and the costs are low . as shown by the foo fighters , a band can just broadcast a live show for their fans , from their own studio . the social element of facebook , combined with this event , only enhances the experience .

the more traffic a site gets , the more data we have to calculate estimated metrics . estimates are more reliable the closer a site is to being ranked # 1 . global traffic ranks of 100 , 000 + are subject to large fluctuations and should be considered rough estimates .
if a site has certified metrics instead of estimated , that means its owner has installed code allowing us to directly measure their traffic . these metrics have a greater level of accuracy , no matter what the ranking .

a woman eating maggots , a boy strumming the guitar whilst playing the piano with his feet and a man screaming a traditional chinese song from the top of his lounges whilst sipping rice wine . these are some of the online performances i have witnessed with my very own eyes , whereby regular people use smartphones to live stream whatever suits their whims and needs .
individuals and companies are looking to tap into a rapidly expanding mobile - video market that’s demanding something sexy , novel and edgy reflecting the new flux of young people’s tastes and interests . zhang qige , a 23 - year old girl who plays computer games and talks live brings thousands of real time viewers simultaneously . she receives more than 2 million subscribers on a typical viewership of 400 , 000 for each nightly show . “they feel like i am speaking to them face to face . ” the proliferation of websites and such illustrate the monetizing of social media in addition to the entrepreneurial drive of young chinese in a state , which encompasses 668 million individuals online .
their popularity reveals the solitude of urban life in china along with the growing excess of single men , attributed in part to the nation’s former one - child policy . much of the information on various live streaming websites could be considered seedy , and beyond the borders of good taste . indeed 34 individuals in the central province of anhui were detained after streaming live pornography . however the majorities are using these streams for innocent entertainment .
apps hosting these live streaming events derive revenue though advertisements and virtual gift giving . viewers can purchase virtual gifts like pictures of blooms or bottles of beer for his or her favourite performers . who are then able to convert these gifts into hard cash . “i believe everyone , without exception , enjoys to see beautiful girls , ” said a 28 - year old single office worker who requested that he be identified only by his surname , zhai . he said he spends 500 - 800 yuan ( $ 80 - 120 ) a week buying virtual presents on four or more distinct websites . one of the popular host websites claim to have 120 million active users who spend a mean time of 48 hours per month on their website .
this business model operates well in china building on the conventional culture of giving red envelopes stuffed with fruit , smokes or bottles of alcohol and cash at weddings at the lunar new year . ”gifting is a familiar practice offline , and moving that online to form e - relationships appears to be the natural transgression , ” said hans tung , a managing associate at ggv capital , a venture capital firm .
the largest online market continues to grow in china bringing aspects of traditional habits and culture intertwined with western popular culture to an ever - demanding young user base .

mogulus is making the change because it feels like the entire field of streaming live video on the web is on the verge of exploding in popularity , and it’d be hard to find a better name to take advantage of that , as ceo max haot tells us . naturally though , this change would not have been possible without the killer urltoken domain , which mogulus acquired recently . haot wouldn’t tells us how much they paid for the domain , but you can bet it was a very pretty penny . [ update : domain name wire claims it sold for $ 100 , 000 – thanks jeremy ]

april 22 , 2015 : live streaming has been around in one form or another since the early 90s , going all the way back to providers such as reannetworks , apple tv and roku . however , with the advent of the mobile phone revolution , users can more easily act as content creators and broadcasters . it’s imperative that marketers understand this space and decide if they need to be there . here are some details on the differing platforms , their histories , and the demographics they serve .
founded in 2007 as a means for overseas u . s . military personnel to speak with their families at home , ustream was one of the first services to feature live events with celebrities . issues with auto content blocking during live paid events has inhibited the platform’s growth , and larger services have now left ustream behind .
this platform combines gamification with broadcasting . founded by adi sideman in 2011 , you now is aimed at teens and includes a leveling system in which users are awarded system privileges for content creation and participation , in a model similar to how many free to play games work . while an older platform , it’s still popular and uses a unique , ad - free monetization model .
introduced in 2011 , this is the chat and live stream portion of google plus . google hangouts on air allows for up to eight people to simultaneously broadcast through youtube and record the stream . its adoption has been inhibited by the overall resistance to the adoption of the larger google plus product , as well as the difficulty of dealing with the product’s complexity . however , it has many fun features , and its ability to record directly into youtube is a huge plus .
urltoken is a live streaming service that was spun from urltoken back in 2011 , twitch’s parent site was shut down in august 2014 as twitch was eclipsed . it was purchased in september 2014 by amazon for $ 970 million and has since branched out into music related streams and content . twitch has been made famous by several participatory trends : twitch plays pokemon , teamsp00ky fighting tournaments for marvel vs . capcom , and several charity video game fighting events . twitch is now being instrumental in the explosion of league of legends and other moba - style games .
meerkat was released in march of 2015 at the sxsw ( south by southwest ) festival , meerkat streams straight to twitter . meerkat was notable for being a direct competitor to twitter’s competing product , periscope . twitter cut off meerkat’s access to the twitter social graph when it acquired periscope .
