Obama on your… iPhone?

Apple Software, D|M, News

A few days ago I posted an article on the advances in technology for a Presidential Inauguration. Well, here is some proof of something “new” to the event. A company called Ustream will be releasing an application that lets people watch live-streams of video via iPhones. Ustream will have various channels that users will be able to select. The Obama Inauguration will be the first ever to be broadcast live via cell phones. To try this application before its official launch, follow the directions below:

Instructions for preview:

  1. Plug the iPhone into your computer.
  2. Wait for the iPhone info to appear in iTunes.
  3. Click on the words “Serial Number” to cause it to change to “Identifier”.
  4. Double-click the identifier number (the long string of characters) and then press cmd-C (Mac) or ctrl-C (Windows) to copy it.
  5. Email that identifier to iphone@ustream.tv so we can build a custom version for that phone using the iPhone SDK.
