The youtube live thing is kind of cool but I'm never really sure how "live" it
is since the interface is kind of slim on those details. News companies have
been using it lately and I wonder if any other video streaming services have
something similar. Unfortunately Odyssee wandered off into college bro memeland
so I'm hesitant to suggest it even though it's a nice system.
