What Is Personal Webcasting Software?

Personal webcasting software is software that allows individuals to produce webcasts using personal PC equipment that they may already have at home, or that is fairly inexpensive to purchase. Although the quality will not be as good as webcasts produced using state of the art technology, many people have found that they can produce adequate webcasts easily from their own homes.

Does Personal Webcasting Work in Conjunction with PC Cameras?

Personal webcasting works in conjunction with any audio or video recording equipment, including microphones and PC cameras. The type of recoding equipment used will affect the quality of the final pod cast, but personal recording equipment will be adequate for many uses. There are a number of free personal webcasting software packages out there. I-Vista includes free web cam web casting software that allows video-only streaming from one PC camera. You can then purchase add-on modules or a premium software package.
