MJ Streams Stanford Graduation Live from her webcam

June 17

Stanford University Commencement LIVEIs Ustream.TV becoming mainstream? Stanford thinks so.

In a Internet and Ustream.TV first, Stanford University student Marie Jo Mont-Reynaud attached a webcam to her graduation cap and streamed the entire Graduation Commencement LIVE on Ustream.TV. She even had a live chatroom and was able to interact with friends and family during the ceremony.Stanford University Graduation LIVE

That is cool. That is mainstream.

Marie Jo, a senior at Stanford University, decided to stream live when her grandmother who lives on the other side of the country was unable attend. Not only was her grandmother able to see her graduate live, she saw the graduation from Marie Jo’s eyes! “When I found out my grandmother couldn’t make it, I figured I would just Ustream it. She called me several times during the ceremony to tell me she loved me and could see everything,” said Marie Jo. “Hopefully I started a tradition at Stanford that will continue into the future.”













This stream was also embedded into the Stanford University Blog for other parents and relatives across the country to witness. Hundreds of friends and relatives tuned in to watch live.
