Eventually, Worldbridges would like to host many culture specific webcast streams. Just as Worldbridges itself began many years ago with a Tibet related site, we begin our culture specific webcasting with a Tibet stream. This webcast was part system check and part brainstorming session designed to explore

- what kinds of shows can be webcast

- what are the challenges involved (technical, financial, social, etc.)

- how to we take the first step in building Tibetan Webcasting Network.
