App Of The Day!

So, a member of iPhone Antidote happened to be out of the country when the Giants won the World Series (sucks to be him). He’s a HUGE giants fan and whilst he was able to work it out to watch the game, with some beers in hand, once the Giants had won he was itching to be back in San Francisco to enjoy the party afterwards.

Now, that wasn’t going to happen, because they don’t make planes that fast (yet) BUT he was able to get the next best thing, watching the party from afar, and that was through a free online social media live streaming video App called Stringwire.

On Stringwire, there was a girl live-streaming video from her phone, following the party throughout  San Francisco, interacting with some people, purely watching others, and it was pretty great.

It’s is a new service from NBCUniversal Media which allows you to “Stream in your world real-time with live video from anywhere to audiences everywhere”. You can use it to stream breaking news (slightly controversial) or just what happens in your living room OR you can watch what other people are streaming, be it their sick surf break or the Giants World Series Win after party in downtown San Fransisco.

You can get it free from the app store! Once you have created an account in the App, you can also log in online here.

Go forth and STREAM!
