Check it out: www.geekwire.com/2012/ces-livestream-ski-run-helmet
Contour's partnered with a Japanese company that will enable users of the helmet cams to broadcast the video live over the internet. I'm not much of a tech guy - I don't have a smart phone and I'm not on facebook - but this still seems kinda cool to me. I wouldn't mind watching some TAYers enjoying the mountains while I'm stuck in the office from time to time :)

I just don't enjoy watching video of skiing. Skiing pics are bad enough.

Be still my beating heart! My wildest dreams have come true !
Will I be able to contain the excitement as live skinning shots of a bunch of old codgers touring at 1.5 mph beam to my desktop.
The disruption in the office as I shout to my co-workers, " they're digging another pit!!! yeah!!!"
Office betting pools on who falls first!
I can hardly wait!

Yup.

Except for that posted by extremely talented individuals, most GoPro footage currently spewed over the internet is about the most mundane, nausea inducing video around. If you take out the chances for editing, I can't imagine the bandwidth that would be necessary to handle all our streaming videos of arm flailing tail-gunning and side slipping.

The videos themselves would be a far greater crime than the music they pirated.

Real-time streaming video from wireless cams sent to your desktop? Fogetaboutit...  unless you got troubles at home.  No, this is about social media and your smart phone.  Bandwidth?  It's gone..     >:(

Just laughed out loud in my cubicle. Where I'd love to watch video of skiing. And love seeing the Contour support! Local Seattle company, started at UW!
