I’m a big fan of finding little tech-related projects and then seeing if I can get them to work.  Inspired by the lack of a spectator-mode in NCAA, Mike and I have been discussing various ways of streaming the game to various other members of our dynasties.  Audio/Video capture from the 360 would be ideal but we were looking for something a little cheaper — preferably $0.

Enter ustream.tv.  Ustream and others like Mogulus (shout-out for Dan!) are a new breed of web application and the ease with which they make webcasting available is nothing short of astounding.  Using the iSight on my MacBook, my upcoming Fresno State/New Mexico State game will be broadcast over the web for my other friends to watch on the newly formed gergi TV.  

Granted, the scale of nerdiness here is a bit high.  Not nearly as high as setting up the webcam to watch my cats sleep all day long… which I did today.   Nor as high as setting up Twitter accounts last night for both Argo & Beta.   That said, I have a project in mind that will put all of these nerd endeavors to shame.  Cats and blatant misuse of technology will be involved if I can find the time to work on it.
