I'm waiting for the stream about the stream to start streaming about the stream from google

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

Oh goodie... twitch can now be as crap as "hangouts on air" or as much a pain in the arse as streaming direct to YT

Also, wrong forum.

What's Twitch?

Seriously. I'm asking because I don't know, what is Twitch?

I just never have gotten the whole "sit and watch someone else play" thing. I have several friends that watch people all the time, but I just can't bring myself to do it.

All I know is the moment I can afford to: I'm moving to where I can get Google Fiber. Anything Google can do to stay alive long enough for me to tap into that sweet sweet bandwidth is A-OK in my book.

The only time I had to sit and watch someone else play was when I was a teenager with my older cousin playing video games and I hated it and sort of resenting him for it. But because he was bigger than me I endured it. Why oh why would I do it in my free time now?

Yes people are weird.

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

Contributing to threads in GD...



I like Twitch, i don't mind watching a few games of FIFA or checking out a game I dont own, before I go to buy it.
The fun parts of twitch are the interaction with strangers.



Plus the whole Twitch plays Pokemon... that was effing hilarious.

My thoughts exactly. Can't stand watching other people play games. If it is something like a walk through or a how to build this impressive thing in minecraft, then I will watch it. Otherwise, just watching someone run around monologing. keep waiting for the hero to jump in and foil his evil plan....

To be fair, it did bring us Twitch plays pokemon. 16 days of entertainment as we met stars such as Bird Jesus, The false prophet and everyone's favourite digrat

Twitch is an involuntary muscle contraction, usually associated with the face and/or hand.

pretty much youtube live. they streamed the NEO II and FanFest stuff on twitch (possibly the NEO I and a few ATs at this point). Also I'm pretty sure I saw news about YouTube buying Twitch months ago.
