Launched in May, the site has acquired more than 120,000 registered users (in a period of 6 months), and many loyal and talented broadcasters. I think if you log-on to blogTV.com you will get addicted to some of the shows, because there are some people doing crazy stuff over there, too.

I've tried them all...for what it's worth, here are my comments: Ustream.TV: Simple, reliable, alot of buried functionality - kept finding cooler stuff as I learned the site. Probably my favorite Kyte.TV: Seems like alot of hype. Disconnect between what they're trying to do and what they're users experience. I like the mobile possibility, but couldn't get it to work. Justin.TV: the friendster of Live. Smoke and mirrors. The site sucks, bare bones on features. Once I was up and running, I felt like I was added to a collection of freak shows. Mogulus.com: complex but some neat features. felt like a ghost town though. Definitely the smallest among the group. I think "live video" is interesting, definitely had some fun! my 2 cents. P.S. Being live and global and knowing people in Japan/China could see me was powerful Update from comment #32.
