Stickam.com - Social networking with webcams for teenagers

A social networking site for teenagers 14 to 17, with a twist: they´re armed with their webcams. Trouble´s in the air, huh?

Stickcam.com is the creation of AVC. “Founded in 2004 and headquartered in Los Angeles, California, AVC provides Web communication services that enable greater productivity and cost-efficiency across the enterprise. AVC Video Conference services are powered by Macromedia Flash Media Server, designed for the delivery of multimedia Web communications. This advanced technology enables carrier-class services that integrate voice, video, and data to offer true interactivity and Web communications across multiple geographies and platforms.”

For one, teenagers love webcams. Stickam is the first to position itself strong in the webcam space that gives them a sort of competitive advantage. Also some people are getting tired of the “sameness” of Myspace and want to find the new-cool-thing. Even a niche (webcams) in the very competitive social networking space might be a good business.
