skype talk video chat
Some interesting developments at Google lately, which is the addition of Google talk and video chat to the already growing in popularity Google Chat.

So instead of the very very popular Skype, we may have an alternative in Google Talk.  Google reminds me of the Internet version of Apple.  Always inventing new and cleaner ways of doing something we do every day.

Check out Google Talk and let me know what you think

Actually you may want to check out ooVoo.com which is a growing competitior that seems to be grabbing some skype users.  Recently Skype has added the ability to do Desktop Sharing which is big for myself that would like to hold a conference.

Not a lot of multi-operating system desktop conference solutions out there currently for the small business owner.  ooVoo wants a crazy price of $40/month for this feature and even then you are limited to a max of 6 users.  For that price I could have a webex subscription.

Still looking for the answer for video/desktop conference solution.  I like Yugma but a lot of users complaining.
