Episode 27: Video Instant Messenger/Phoning


The future is here! Now you can communicate with friends, colleagues, and family members all over the world with audio AND video using AOL Instant Messenger. We demonstrate how to do this using iChat software and video cameras. You can video chat with one person or have a conference with up to three other people. Save on those long distance phone bills and even see the person on the other end! No extra fees to pay for this service, just a free AOL Instant Messenger account, an interent connection and a video camera. We show you how!

Note that we now have two feeds for our vidoes. One in MP4 format which is compatible with the iPod video (320x240), and a second one that is in a larger format and better quality in an H.264 QuickTime 7 version (480x320): ideal for viewing the videos on your computer monitor.
