This is 2007.
Today was T and R's civil partnership, but we couldn't go, so we watched the proceedings in London via weddingcam.
OK, so the camera was rather slow and we couldn't see them signing, but they waved to us, and it was all REALLY EXCITING! Many congratulations, Tyronny!
I'm really happy about how gay couples can not only get married, but their mates can watch them do so via a webcam link, on a laptop using wifi, while they are sitting in bed. How COOL is that!
Next up are E and P... I wonder if there's a secret camera inside the fountain they'll be standing next to?!

Well it could be streamed via ustream.tv, provided there's wifi at the castle. That would provide more 'live' streaming. Simple, just use a Gorilla Pod (I have), and stream.
(You can get BSL on ustream, done it).

GoillaPod - one of the most useful "tripod" I've every come across - we've got the pro version (since my wife does have a SLR and some rather hugely expensive heavy lens, so the pro version is capable of dealing with that weight)
I second Alison regarding ustream.tv - there are quite a few other rival sites as well that does the same time - making it all easier.
For a more private video streaming...wengo does have those wengomeeting place where you invite people etc.

Giggling at the thought of YouTube opening up and all people can see is flowing water....

Ahhhh dunno why I didn't think of that! Guess we can't expect Southwark Council to be able to afford to pay for hi-speed streaming(!)
But what does YouTube have to do with it??

Er, in defensive non-geek mode here, isn't it the platform for videos on the internet these days?

Yes but not live streaming, as far as I know?
