Generally speaking, the audience should all be using your platforms. The other question is: Has anybody here ever used Meerkat or Periscope? Everyone has live broadcasted themselves or one of their close friends recently? Somewhat familiar? All right, good. Rebecca Paoletti: Okay, before I go to the next question, does anyone in the audience work at Meerkat or Periscope? I was going to call on you if you did. We’re building this for a new generation of broadcasters to help them engage with and monetize their audiences. My name is Rush Doshi and I’m working on a new initiative called Firetalk, which is an always-on, interactive video platform. We’ve recently pivoted into more of a Periscope-type model. We started in 2009 aggregating all of the world’s linear news channels and put them on one consumer platform. I run a company called Livestation, which was one of the pioneers in live streaming. If you forget that, it’s a difficult Dutch name. Lippe Oosterhof: My name is Lippe Oosterhof.
Rebecca Paoletti: You can use semi-colons. Lippe Oosterhof: There are a lot of commas in that sentence. Rebecca Paoletti: You’re over your one sentence. Basically, we focus not just on the video streams but in events or places with different angles in the same website. We also focus on delivering live video with multiple angles. We also deliver live video without the need for apps to be downloaded or plug-ins, so it’s basically coming straight from the browser using WebRTC. And by “real time,” I mean real time with a lag of zero and not 20 seconds late as Periscope and Meerkat do. It’s an open live video platform that delivers video in real time. I’m the founder and CEO of Rhinobird.TV and also a fellow at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard. If you guys could just each introduce yourselves very quickly with one line about who you are and one line about what your product is actually doing today.įelipe Heusser: Sure. Very happy to have you all jump in while they’re talking about particular topics because we want to keep this super interactive.

And feel free to raise your hands at any point during this session, but know that I am going to call for questions at the end. I should have stuck with my legal pad! Okay, so before we jump into this. It’s never a good thing to be paneling with a computer that you haven’t actually turned on yet. And thank you guys for being here! Hopefully I have my questions somewhere here. They haven’t all met each other before so here we go. Different types of experiences but all about live video, live experiences with communities. As I’ve mentioned, I’m super fascinated with this space and very excited about them all joining us today. Rebecca Paoletti: We have three founders of three different live streaming platforms. Unfortunately that’s 4am my time so I won’t be tuning in, but if you want to see the future of mobile TV, it’s a recommending viewing experience.This panel discussion is an excerpt from our LDV Vision Book 2015.įelipe Heusser, CEO, Lippe Oosterhof, CEO, Livestation Rushabh Doshi, VP & GM, Firetalk The iPhone client will be officially demonstrated on Livestation live December 4 at 5pm GMT, or 9am PST.

The next stage in the development of Livestation is an iPhone client, which given they’ve only had a Mac client for less than a year is remarkable progress. We also have a nice Livestation story: Livestation picked up streaming of the Large Haldron Collider after I mentioned in a post that it would be great if they could, so they also listen, and continue to deliver.

I watched all the US Presidential debates from Livestation, and its my first port of call for anything I need live TV news coverage on. More recently, they added support for internet streams as a well, so it now offers CNN and others all from the same handy interface. The service offers live television from a range of major providers, including BBC, Al Jazerra, France 24 and others.
I’m a big fan of P2P live television service Livestation, and unlike many other sites we’ve covered them heavily.
