We're back for a new episode of TC Cribs, and it's featuring a startup long-time TechCrunch readers will know well: Justin.tv. The office is a quirky mix of hallways, rooms that probablyshouldn'tbe rooms, and secret stairways " and it's loaded with character and condiments.The company got its start back in 2007 as founder Justin Kan livecasted his life with a camera hooked up to a backpack that was loaded with batteries and modems, letting thousands of viewers watch his every move. He's a brave man.The company's come a long way since then: they're now one of the most popular live streaming platforms on the web (Kan has hung up his backpack, which you'll see in the tour). And they also recently launched a sister product called Socialcam, which is best described as an Instagram for video. Tune in!
