Anyone have a favorite video conferencing system they can recommend? The main purpose would be so that my daughter can see her grandparents, cousins, and the like.
I tried Yahoo messenger, and it seems like a kludge. You set up a chat session, call the other party, then enable them to view the webcam.
Windows Messenger Live and Skype both claim to have full screen video conferencing, so I'll probably end up trying them also. Any thing else I should try?
I think we've used whatever was built into yahoo or AIM for it and it worked pretty well. If you're buying new hardware for it, iMacs do this out of the box, but that doesn't help much if both parties aren't on Macs. More important is going to be the internet hookup on both ends, that will directly affect how well it works out.

I am informed that it is Windows Live Messenger that we use for video conferencing and it works well.
