Our group (part of the hackathon) built a simple livecasting app called goosecast. We're using it to livecast the hackathon.

The presentation for goosecast can be found here: http://ccgoose.com/channel/hacka2thon

For a first time event, all of the projects seem to be really high quality. Kicking myself for not making the drive up...

Likewise, I'm in Ohio and decided not to go. Big mistake.
