In the first post, we explored the meteoric evolution in online video, dating back to Web 1.0 with JenniCam, We Live in Public, and DotComGuy and now in Web 2.0 with the launch of the incredibly popular Justin.tv.

STIRR It Up! Founder’s Mixer 1.6 Raises the Bar
This was STIRR ’s sixth event and there was no doubt that it was the biggest to date. In fact they had to move from Blue Chalk in Palo Alto to The Whisper Lounge in SF in order to accomodate the growth.

STIRR is an effective mix of “live” social and business networking among a highly qualified crowd of tech innovators,…
