I have not tried either of these, but…

1)
Skype has screen sharing

2)
Microsoft SharedView integrates with Windows Live Messenger.

“Microsoft SharedView is a fast, easy way to share documents and screen views with small groups of friends or coworkers”

I was hoping for some kind of software that could be used as webcam output for live streaming services such as Bambuser and Ustream

Broadcasting to multiple users, then. Not one-to-one. Is that right?

I was thinking a software that could both broadcast my desktop and my webcam at the same time – screencast and webcast, so to speak. Like desktop in a big window and a little window of me in webcam.

I was hoping someone would chime in with a better answer, but I guess not, so FWIW…

Ustream suggests WebCamMax for using multiple cameras in one stream.

WebCamMax has Picture in Picture and “Share your video clips or desktop screen”, so perhaps those can be combined.

Found Camtasia Studio and Jing Pro – two paid softwarez that do what I need. Thanks all!
