I was doing some further investigation on justin.tv’s perceived traffic increase when I ran into this little ditty:
From Valley Wag
“Lifecasting site Justin.tv has come a long way since banning a broadcaster for one night of indecent exposure — that is, sexual acts. There may be less porn now, but other illegal content now graces Justin.tv’s servers. Right now I’m watching a stream of Fox Sports Net West’s broadcast of the San Diego Padres playing the Los Angeles Angels. Last night, more than 2,000 people watched the NBA’s Los Angeles Lakers play. Given Major League Baseball’s draconian online reporting rules — no more than seven photos from any game; audio and video clips can be a maximum of two minutes and can’t be streamed live — we doubt the MLB is happy about this.”

Barack Obama has grasped the admiration of of the world and most notably geeks who surf the world wide web. His early exploration into the realm of social media has been discussed at length all over the web and his web presence is a testament of his commitment to the space. The thing that strikes me as interesting about Barack is that his inclusive nature on the web has drawn people’s admiration to him not only as a guy campaigning to become the president of the United States. But also as a man that understands the the nuances of online communities. For instance, Barack’s twitter account has a script that automatically follows anyone who follows him. At this writing Barack follows 18,877 people. Hillary Clinton does not follow anyone on Twitter I’m not the only person who’s noticed this either.

Justin.TV launched as one of the founding platforms for the lifecasting genre. One thing is certainly clear, the boys at JTV aren’t very good at hosting events. Now don’t get me wrong I’d love to see them succeed but my gut instinct tells me that JTV will fail before it’s 2nd anniversary.
Here’s 5 reasons below:

1. John Kerry: Obama’s cred is due to his race? “Because he’s African-American. Because he’s a black man. Who has come from a place of oppression and repression through the years in our own country.” WTF is he talking about?
2. Bill Richardson Endorsing Barack Obama Hilliary’s team says it’s not important because they’ve already won there. Isn’t dude the Governor of that state? The Clinton’s are such comedians!
3. The passport snoops worked under Conde’s office. What’s really up with that?
