Engadget Podcast -- live on USTREAM... right now!

You know, we like to get a little crazy some times. Test the waters. Mix it up. You know, all that hyperbole. At any rate, if you'd like to mix it up with us... we're broadcasting live on USTREAM right now. Check out the embed after the break -- and wish us luck!

Update: Well, that was certainly a rockin' good time -- we'll have to do that again real soon! Thanks to everyone who listened in, and check back tomorrow if you missed it, we'll have our regular podcast post up. (Nilay's audio will be louder on the archived version, there were some issues streaming his mic.)

Josh, you never answered my question:

Will you marry me?

Love,

Hooray Engadget Live!

If only there was video/chat :p

[iCello Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:05PM]

I agree, although for me I can't access fancy things like that on my iPhone or my computers horrible dialup connection.

[Templarian Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:30PM]

Pretty good so far.

[aubreyq Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:31PM]

Audio only?

[Poop Chef Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:31PM]

Yeah, its a shame. Guess we'll have to use our imaginations! ;)

[Poop Chef Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:31PM]

oooh sexy time chat!!

[seancollinduffy Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:32PM]

no landscape qwerty? wasnt that 1 of the biggest problems with the iPhone pre 2.0

[oldmanhorton Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:33PM]

Nilay, SPEAK UP

[Crb Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:40PM]

No kidding...he is quiet as hell

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:36PM]

The tweet lead me to believe Morpheus was fighting Neo. Or at least Paul was fighting Nilay.

wait if you guys are all here... who's running the press?!?!?!?!!!! :o

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:46PM]

rawr.

[Ucbigmike20 Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:46PM]

I thought there was gonna be video streaming like Leo Laporte does. Nonetheless I'm enjoying it so far. Good luck guys!!

[Templarian Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:49PM]

These are some horrible analogies lol. Windows 7 device support is amazing though.

[Insomnihack Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:53PM]

The live chat room is cranking. I hope Josh reads my comments. I've never come this close to a true celebrity. I'll pass out if he mentions my name on the air *screams hysterically*

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:58PM]

hey, why'd they start without ME?!

[LauraJuneTopolsky Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:58PM]

This is way more fun than a regular work day!

[Streetfights Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:44PM]

Aw, because they excluded you from their secret club?

[Mr T Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:59PM]

whoever the quiet guy is, we can't hear you

[djd808 Posted Aug 13th 2009 4:59PM]

Nilay,
you need to get closer to the mic!

[gadgetfanboy Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:00PM]

Cool, I've been watching/chatting on the engadget HD livestreams for a bit now and it does add another dimension to it. Hopefully next time you guys will do the live chat too. The HD guys often will talk about a topic for a while, then they check the chat for any interesting comments to respond to.

Anyway, thanks for doing this, listening right now.

[gadgetfanboy Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:02PM]

OK my bad, we do have the chat. anyway, cool deal.

[TheCrusher Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:02PM]

Awesome stuff. Podcast manager you say?

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:03PM]

Did that just happen? Where Josh and Nilay just here in the chat room? Surreal.

[decypherSMC Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:04PM]

uStream + something like Cover It Live (http://www.coveritlive.com/index.php)
it allows user chat and audio streams plus the moderators could paste in helpful links (engadget stories to what you are talking about would be helpful!)

[DirtyVegas Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:07PM]

Curses, can't see it on ze iphone.

[Eddie Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:12PM]

lol. I started it going "yay engadget!" then immediately browsed away and I couldnt figure out why it stopped.

Go me.

[decypherSMC Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:13PM]

You guys are making it hard not to laugh really loud in the office here…slapshot

[Sax25 Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:17PM]

The live chat is great .. never bothered with your pre recorded podcasts. Nilay needs to speak up and we also want VIDEO!!!! Hope future podcasts will be live (and video will be icing on the cake!)

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:18PM]

you can't hear Nilay

[morbital Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:19PM]

Dell is like Wal-mart in the computing world...

a Dell phone is not really exciting for me...

[nickyP Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:25PM]

I think compact camera's are just fighting so hard to differentiate themselves it's getting hard to make any noise. They have already fought the price battle, now we're in the feature stage of the fight, and once the useful ones are settled, the price war will come in again in another 12 months or so. I do honestly think sub compacts are going to get destroyed by smartphones in the next 2-3 years though. If I look at a picture from an n97/n86 and then one from a $150 sub compact, the difference isn't striking.

[Insomnihack Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:54PM]

Well that was fun. The chat room covered such important material as whether Steve Jobs has a real neck, irrational fears of clowns & Symbian, and whether Josh was a cyborg and/or was available for marriage.

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 13th 2009 5:55PM]

He's mine! Back off!

[BE77Y Posted Aug 13th 2009 7:44PM]

Boo! I missed it! Next time, chaps... next time.

[foyleman Posted Aug 13th 2009 9:18PM]

Two steps away from live video. It's not that much more work. A couple webcams... webcammax maybe. Bang, you're there. But either way... much appreciated the effort you put in.
