Qik. Live video from your cell phone

Time writes up Qik, a free Web based service that takes video from mobile phones and broadcasts it instantly via the Internet.

"Broadcasting live video used to require a huge satellite truck, thousands of dollars in equipment and several strong souls to lug around bulky machines. Then YouTube came along, and all you needed was a camera, a computer and a little bit of Web savvy. Now Web video has gotten even easier.

With Qik.com, a free Web service launched in public test mode on July 21, all you need is a cell phone."
