Over the last few weeks I’ve been experimenting with a new live streaming service by the name of Blab – a tool that I think has the potential to be as useful (if not more useful) than Periscope.
In this episode I share my experiences of Blab so far and talk about how it differs from other Live Streaming tools.
Update: in the next 24 hours I’m doing a Blab here. Subscribe to check it out live.

Hi there and welcome to the ProBlogger प्रयोगकर्ताहरूको अफलाइन लक्ष्य व्यवस्थापन विधिहरू podcast. My name is Darren Rowse and this is episode 44. Today on the podcast, I want to talk about a new tool for bloggers and for other content creators called Blab. You may have heard about it; there’s been a lot of buzz. It’s a live-streaming tool. It’s like the love child of Google Hangouts and Periscope. You can find today’s show notes at problogger.com/podcast/44.
I’m recording this podcast a couple of weeks before you actually hear it because I’m trying to get a little bit ahead. We’re going to the Inbound 1000 mobile phone numbers Conference in Boston on Monday, just a few days away from now, and so I’m recording a few ahead of time, and I am really excited today because I’ve pretty much spent quite a bit of my time today on this new tool called Blab. It has been around for a few weeks now, but as usual, it takes me a little while to get on it.
