Can you add the timezone? I’m guessing CST.
CST! That’s correct!
Planning to watch your twitch streams shortly and it struck me…what makes you pick Twitch over Youtube, or vice versa? I don’t have much sense of what each offers to a content creator.
Are any of these available to watch online?
@kalyptein: I have medium-term plans to do fully produced video content on Youtube. Strategically, I think there’s value in separating streaming content from produced content, and the easiest way to do that is to use one platform for streaming and a different platform for the produced videos (which might include edited streaming content). I also think each platform gives me an opportunity to reach a different audience.
@Jeff: Yes! The VODs are currently available on Twitch.
