Facebook Skype Video Chat
Well, it seems that Facebook now offers point-to-point video chatting from within Facebook.
Good for them! BUT…point-to-point is kinda useless…just saying. I have more than one friend I like to chat with, and all the Bay Shore Kids could have a reunion.
Overall Opinion
HoHum, but, at least video conferencing is now reaching the masses. After 20 years….my work is done?! 🙂
Google+ (if anyone is actually using it…I cannot seem to get connected) offers multipoint video chat (using, I think, Vidyo software). At least that is what I heard….
Conclusion
I have been saying for MANY years now that videoconferencing should be for anyone at anytime from anyplace.
Big fancy rooms that cost $500,000 each are simply not needed…DUH…each participant should stay home (#telecommuting = #coworking) and video chat into a meeting. Save gas, save time, save money, save the environment.
