The Ustream widget allows you to display streamed videos from a streaming channel called “Ustream” by I.B.M. and maybe a few others in the web.
In most cases you have to have a subscription for the Ustream channel in order to have access to those stream. Basically in order to use a Ustream channel, all you need to do is to copy and paste a URL.
