Meerkat, A Mobile App That Delivers Live Streaming Video to Twitter With the Press of a Button

Meerkat Meerkat

Meerkat is an app for iOS designed by San Francisco-based startup Life on Air Inc. that delivers live streaming video to Twitter with the press of a button, letting users broadcast events in real-time to their followers. The app creates a link on Twitter that followers can use to watch the video and comment using their Twitter handles. The video is a one-time only deal–no archive is created–but anyone can watch during a stream, regardless of whether they’re logged in via Twitter.
