How i can make live streaming on my website

Question

I am a beginner of web programming trying to learn things. I am currently working on my own website where i am in need of live steaming for my friends and family. I have a Video Camera for capturing video. I want to get live stream on my website. I am capable to get the output on screen but i don't know how i can make my site able to live stream. My first question is whether it is possible? if yes then how i can achieve this goal. Any help regarding to my question will be appreciated highly. Thanks to the community of all web programmers.

Solution

I suggest using a 3rd party streaming site like livestream.com, ustream.tv, or justin.tv since streams will eat up a lot of bandwidth, especially if you have a lot of watchers.

They will typically allow you to embed a flash video onto a web page to seamlessly integrate with your site.
