There is really so much cool stuff going on with online video conferencing these days. I use http://oovoo.com to keep in touch with my buddies that no longer live in the area. It lets up to six of us get on at once and the fact that it is free makes it perfect for us.

It’s really incredible how easy it is to stay in touch these days.

I have done multiway video conferences in the past on the MBP 2.16GHz, but now only see the �single camera� icon. I wonder if this changed in the 10.4.7 update or one of the security updates since.
