Yowie is a really cool beta site that hosts free video chats. What's really cool about it is bands and comedians have been using it to put out live shows -- Matt Besser hosts a show called The Back Room which has had guests like Scott Aukerman and Doug Benson and the Long Shot podcast did a live taping with it. (I haven't really watched any musicians' shows, but the comedy nerd in me loooooves seeing comedians on there).
What's special about it, is it's super interactive; as an audience member you can ask questions (in text or video) and chat with other people who are watching.
It seems like something that, if it catches on, could become a popular outlet for comedians and musicians to put out content and get immediate feedback from audiences all over the world. I hope more performers, especially those who produce podcasts on iTunes, start using it more.
Yowie is definitely something worth checking out :)
