EU Live Feeds

itto · Aug 22, 2008

Yesterday MA gave a Demo of a feature, Live Feeds!

This is what Marco posted on EF

A participant may start a streaming session like his/her avatar had a camera "in the eyes" for anyone with a web client to show in near-real time. This will, I hope, bring a lot of cool coverage of events, landgrabs, special happenings, etc to anyone who gets the URL from the sender.

It is a great way to be aware and "present" even if your avatar isn't located at a specific location. Participants with multiple monitors can use it during battles and getting instant Recon intelligence, for instance. A shop owner may use it to monitor the customers entering his/her store, etc.

I also imagine it would be out of the question that we in the future could stream "live feed" to in-world TV-sets ready for receiving the stream. The possibilities will be endless. =)

This is a good idea, sounds a bit like a real time version of RSS feeds for EU. Surely though, this isn't as good as it's suggesting, or is it?

Hard to tell
But i know that someone beat me to register the domain entropiatv.com
So atleast someone thinks this will be good :D

That's a good domain name for this... It's a shame that the info link is down, I wanted to read more on this... I suppose the url will always be the same for who ever is sending the EU feed, otherwisw how would the embeded script always be accurate in terms of the source-url? But it sounds good and seeing as I'm in a news oriented soc, I can't wait until it happens.:)
"It's a shame that the info link is down..." Just to clarify, I meant the demo-link on EF, not the link from itto's post to EF ;)
