Abstract
A video hosting system is provided for storing and managing broadcasts. A user device communicates with the video hosting system to create or join a broadcast. The user device transmits video to the video hosting system for inclusion in the broadcast that may be joined by video transmitted by other user devices. Users of user devices may also search for nearby broadcasts to join. The video hosting system associates a time and place for broadcasts and limits users from joining a broadcast who do not correspond to the time and place of the broadcast. Users of the video hosting system may search for and view videos associated with a broadcast and compile portions of videos associated with a broadcast to create a compilation.
