Shhh…new features for you to try…

We’ve got something new for you avid LiveNewsCameras.com users to try out;  its very much a work-in-progress but we think it’s a cool new way to visualize live news.

Here’s the deal - we took many (but not all) of the existing LiveNewsCameras stations, and added in a whole bunch of new ones - dropped the whole thing on a Google Map, and made it clickable.

Unlike the live news grid - there are no thumbnails here - but at the same time - there are MANY new stations added - since we can now link out directly to URLs where live streaming video is happening.

And we’re asking for your help to find more - if you know of a page with live streaming video - drop us a note at streams@livenewscameras.com

(To be clear - we’re looking for website URLs - not ASX files or embedded players)

In other words, if your local station in say, Seattle - has live newscasts streaming on their website- please send use the URL to the live streaming page at the address above!

So - without rambling any longer - we present…

THE LIVE NEWS CAMERAS MAP

Please understand this is an experimental product and still in development - it may act strange in your browser, video may not play properly, your computer may catch fire (ok, not really…) or other strange things may happen - but please, check it out, and enjoy.

Thanks,

The LiveNewsCameras team.
