TwitCasting Proves Distribution Just as Important as Content

Posted by John Saddington on Mar 7, 2010

I blogged recently about the extremely important relationship between excellent content and distribution and how you need both to be successful and how it impacts SEO.

I think TwitCasting, a new service that lets you stream live video and tweet simultaneously is a perfect case study of why this paradigm is true.

Essentially it’s this: Live video is neat but if no one views it then you’re wasting your time; you need people to watch it!

From MobileCrunch:

When the recording begins, you can automatically tweet out a specific URL for the broadcast (“I’m live on Twitcasting!”) to your followers who just need to hit the link to watch the live stream on the web or even on their iPhones (iPhone users won’t hear sound though).

The app comes in especially handy during events, for example. After the broadcast, you can choose to save and archive the recording on the TwitCasting website.

Makes perfect sense, and I can see this app being very handy this year. Love it.

So far the app looks fantastic. I've had some issues at first but those went away the 2nd time I used it.

  1. Thats pretty cool. I’ll be checking this out for sure.

  2. Wowzahs. “iPhone users won’t hear sound though” <<that's odd. I'm assuming this mean that the only mobile platform you can view a recording is with this app through a now muted iPhone? Still impressive though.

  3. Intense. Streaming and tweeting simultaneously.
