Ustream MobileWe’re announcing our Mobile Division by releasing Ustream Mobile. Ustream Mobile Applications were designed and developed by Ustream for Ustreamers. Consistent with our brand promise for amazing live + interactive experiences, our mobile applications are Truly Live, have Audience Activation with Twitter and are Fully Interactive with Yes/No one-click polls and real-time chat, and even are GPS enabled.

Celebrity Ustreamers Lil Wayne, Heidi and Spencer from The Hills, Josh Groban, and Slipknot are on Ustream Mobile. Lil Wayne ustreamed The Grammys!

My partners would like to share:

Brad Hunstable, Founder and President, “Mobile allows any Ustreamer to broadcast live to their Ustream show from anywhere. Now you can show and share more with your audience.”

Dr. Gyula Feher, Founder and CTO, “We solved a major technical challenge by processing the mobile stream in a new manner that decreases the amount of induced latency. This allows the rich broadcaster to audience interactivity even in a mobile environment.”

We’re committed to bringing both amazing products and experiences to the Ustream community. Thank you to our wonderful community and our amazing staff. We are very excited about 2009!

Best,

John

    could be very useful. However making it available and stable over 3g is key.

    Works great on my iPhone, I can now make a mobile show.

    Hopefully we can broadcast live on the iPhone and then be able to use the iPhone app store ustream viewer to view the live stream on an other iPhone. Live video to other cells!

    Hope a favorite/bookmark can be used on ustream viewer app in a future update.

    Let me know when it comes out for Windows Mobile or the Blackberry, since that’s the majority of what smart phone users use.

    I get this when I try to download:
    If you have a Jailbroken iPhone follow these steps

    1) Open the Cydia App

    2) Go to the categories section and find ‘multimedia’

    3) Find the Ustream Broadcaster and install it

    4) Open the Ustream Broadcaster App!

    I don’t have a Jailbroken iPhone, and don’t have the Cydia app. What does that mean?
