(Gawd I'd love to cross post this question but the forum police will slap me down, oy vey...)
Anyway...I'm looking for a video conferencing client software like Microsoft Net Meeting (that's not Net Meeting). I'm new to the sport of video conferencing and so am starting right here where the advice is always worth a second look!
Any suggestions from you hard core telecommuters out there in winguides land?
TIA

Thanks Homeflash for the suggestion...I was not familiar with Paltalk and it certainly presents a different twist to video conferencing. Do you use this client? If so, don't tell me what you really think of it :-) I went to install it and found certain parts of their EULA disturbing, to say the least. For example: "As a condition to your use of Paltalk, you agree that you will not either directly or indirectly ... (b) make any negative, denigrating or defamatory statement(s) or comment(s) about Paltalk or any Representative, or otherwise engage in any conduct or action that might tarnish the image, reputation, ability or character of Paltalk or any Representative, or otherwise tarnish or dilute any of Paltalk's trade or service marks and/or its goodwill; or (c) solicit or cause any existing customer or client of Paltalk to cease using, and/or any potential customer or client of Paltalk not to use any Paltalk products and/or services and/or to use any software and/or other product(s) and/or services that are competitive with Paltalk's products and/or services; (d) aid, abet or authorize any person or entity to engage in any of the foregoing.*"*** Whew! What a sensitive bunch of developers! *Doesn't quite put the ky-bosh on free speech, but sure comes close.
FWIW, I found a freeware app called CU-SeeMe with a less onerous EULA, in case there are others checking this thread. I do appreciate you responding to my question.
