QIK

Attending a broadcast technology conference and was introduced to a new (to me anyway) web service called QIK.  Turns a cell phone into a live broadcast transmitter ... like Twitter only with a live video feed.  As an analyst this would have come in handy when attending company meetings and conferences and getting live video back to the traders, clients, and anyone who tuned into my QIK channel.  Regulation will kill that I imagine.  QIK.com is the place to go, then download to Windows Media phone (I am using an HTC Touch phone).  Digital technology is dramatically bringing down the cost of news and information video capture and transmission, just not as fast as ad revenues are declining, at least in this recession.
