What does the Blinko Broadcaster plugin do?

The Blinko Broadcaster plugin for WordPress simply allows any WordPress user that installs and activates this plugin to set their own broadcasting station for any visitor or friend to view.
How can you use this plugin and create your own broadcasting station?
In order to create your own broadcasting station first you must be a WordPress user (meaning that you have installed your WordPress blog on a hosting server).

Because this is a plugin, you must download it from the WordPress Repository and then upload it onto your hosting server inside /wp-content/plugins folder.

Then, you must log on as admin user to your administrative area and access the Plugin section. If you correctly uploaded and placed the plugin files inside the suggested folder, it will now appear on your screen, along with the other existing plugins.

In order to create your own broadcaster, you will have to activate the plugin. After successfully activating the plugin, an entry will appear inside the admin main menu called Broadcaster.

Accessing it will display the Manager page and the message that your Blinko Broadcaster isn’t setup along with the link to Setup section.

Setting up the broadcaster is simple; all you need to provide is your email address.

Providing a correct email address and submitting the Setup form will create an evaluation account on Blinko that will allow you to create your own broadcasting station, using Blinko broadcasting engine. The evaluation account will allow you to use the broadcasting facilities Blinko offers for a predetermined amount of time, after which you will choose to upgrade it if you want to keep using it.

After successfully creating the account, the embed code for your broadcaster will be inserted into a newly created page inside WordPress, simply called My Blinko Show. You will be able to view and edit the content of the broadcasting page at any time.

The only thing left to do before broadcasting your own show is downloading and installing the Blinko Broadcaster desktop application.
