Description	From their site: Yahoo! Live lets you create your own social broadcasting experience. Display, hack and mashup live video streams on your website or client application. Using REST, you can query our streaming servers to find people broadcasting on Yahoo! Live as well as information about those broadcasts and the people that are viewing them. A unique feature of Yahoo! Live is that other people with webcams can be part of the main broadcast that they are watching, as a "coviewer". Use this API to mashup broadcasters, coviewers, and anything else on the web that might be relevant.
