Weaving The World With Live Web Casting
I recently had the opportunity to see my little sister graduate at the top of her class. Although she was more than a thousand miles away from me and my family, we were able to share in her joy and excitement thanks to the power of technology. You have probably heard of it. I had, but I never before had the opportunity to use it myself. It was all thanks to the power of live web casting.
What is live web casting in the first place? As the name suggests, it is an audio visual file that is broad cast over the web. But is this possible at all? Well, let’s just say that while it might not have been a very feasible idea in the past, the latest developments in technology have made it a reality of sorts. Ever since voice was transmitted over wires, the technology has been feasible. But it was only after the advent of the information technology era that live web casting became a reality.
It would be wrong to assume that live web casting cropped up as soon as the internet did. In the early days of the Internet, the bandwidth or speeds were very low and slow. As a result, the detail of the data transmitted over the connection was also poor. But, with the advent of broadband and other faster technologies, things have changed. Those of us who had the opportunity to experiment with buffered web casts will remember how long it took for a simple audio visual file to be transmitted over the net. But thankfully, those times are long past.
Nowadays, not only is it possible for us to witness live web casting, it is also possible for us to do so faster and with much better quality. So much so that all important events, whether they are of a personal, corporate or governmental nature, make use of live web casting to transmit to a larger audience. Like the sample of live web casting I managed to catch. It instantly brought me and my family closer to the graduation without having to spend a great deal of time, money and effort to be there.
Nowadays, even corporate bodies are making use of live web casting technology to share their information with their stakeholders. Think of it as a personal television station. Nearly everyone I know has a website and most of them offer personal information on their websites. In the earlier days, due to limited band width, information present was mostly textual. But now, live web casting offers viewers the possibility of viewing real time video files.
