At the scene of breaking news? Want to share your son’s soccer game with grandma? Qik lets you stream live content to your personal Qik Web page so that friends and family can watch events as they unfold in real time. Before you record, you can name your video and add a caption. The Qik Web site then stores your videos so that anyone you choose can view them later. Qik’s BlackBerry application lets you set your privacy right from the handset (public or private). You can even automatically tweet a link to your clips on Twitter every time you’ve finished recording a video. The latest release lets you share your location while Qikking by city or street level.

Free; www.qik.com or BlackBerry App World
