What motivate you to do a live streaming to the public?

I doubt very many people on HN care about broadcasting themselves to the public using things like Meerkat and Periscope either. Maybe as a consumer it could be interesting if people are showing things other than the crap they already show on Vine/Instagram (lame comedy, butt workouts, etc.).

I know Meerket recently pitched itself as a way to share interesting events (St. Patrick's Day in Dublin, The Running of the Bulls in Madrid, etc.) but what they think people are using it for and what people are using it for in reality seem pretty far apart at this point.

Thanks for your inputs, really appreciated it :)

I think so, there are more and more crappy videos, but the thing is, Meerkat and Periscope are used by very influential people in the tech industry, which probably one of the reasons why more and more people is using it and the teams also raise a lot of cash to continue with the business development.

Let's see how these will go, probably going to be huge ;)
