    Microsoft's NetMeeting? I'm not sure if the latest version of MSN Messenger does it.

    Actually I've been looking for a video conferencing/streaming solution.

    Here's a list



    Netmeeting has video conferencing still, but the user directory was moved to msn msgr at some point.

    The review of the new MSN Messenger said that the video comes in three sizes : small, smaller or minute

    Bummer, I though it was going to be competition where you could submit daft photos of yourself taken with an iSight.



    Now there's an idea for a thread!

    Good article, a bit of an Apple fanboy perhaps but that's easily forgiven.



    Best quote of the article:

    It's better to think of audio-video chatting as unique communications options that shine in specialized situations.
