Hey mike, i havent listened to the show but wanted to join live to the stream of the podcast but hit one snag, you have to sign up to talk in the chatroom. Is there a way maybe you can just run the show recording right here at techguy and to keep bots and trolls out we can have it where the user can authenticate with their techguy logon credentials?

We're looking into that possibility -- using a system like ustream for the video/audio, but use our own system for the chat. Of course, our own chat system has it's own problems.

I got you mike, Is there a way you could possibly maybe just run the chat engine here and stream from moguls but link it to chat here but disable chat on mogulus end?

We haven't used Mogulus for months (actually since just after they stopped being called Mogulus), but that's pretty much the idea.

Oh ok, have you ever looked into stickcam? I know my sister has been using it like crazy lately to talk to friends and such, if you want i could ask her if there is a way to disable chat there and stream the video feed somewhere else...

We used StickCam for a show once... had some kind of issue with it, but I don't remember what. Might be worth trying again some time. In any event, I think the real issue will be the integrated chat system, not the video stream. Having the chat use the TSG username is the tough part. We've always seemed to have trouble with making that both secure and reliable. We'll give it a shot for the next show, though! Sunday, October 11th at 12:30PM Eastern.
