For advice from people on this list: Verdi ran 24 hours 24 artists last year, getting 24 people to VJ their own session, hosting live and mixing in pre-recorded video, using Mogulus (now Livestream.com) - would be worth asking him for his experience & advice. And John Leeke's been doing live video conferences from http://www.historichomeworks.com for years. Phil Campbell in the UK has an "Ammobox" which he puts together for people to do easy live streaming of conferences. Worth checking it out - http://ammoboxproject.com - and talking to him - http://twitter.com/philcampbell
