Qik
Qik is a mobile live video sharing service for the T-Mobile G1 and Android. This app allows you to spontaneously share live video with friends and family. Simply launch the Qik app on your G1 and point and shoot video. The video will appear live on the Qik website, and you can embed and share the video just like you would any other social video. You can also broadcast easily to Justin.tv and other partners. The latency on the video is remarkably low – barely a few seconds at the most. Several thousand users of Qik already exist, resulting in a large number of live mobile video streams on the service at any given time.
Qik allows you configure titles, descriptions, and other parameters before beginning streaming. The interface is simple, intuitive, and discoverable. While the app defaults to sharing your live videos publicly on the Qik website, you can chose to enable a private mode that you can share only with friends and family if you prefer. The streaming video has really low latency as mentioned before, and does not stutter or skip even on relatively busy Wi-Fi channels. This is a one of a kind service that allows you to stream live video from your T-Mobile G1.
