MeBeam has a rather cryptic reference to Skype multiuser video conferencing on their site - presumably utilising their chatroom technonology

If you are Skype user, your in for a bit of a treat - multi person video conferencing over skype, and cross-portability with jabber.

This is big news, as it means, your video calls are no longer limited by one to one conferencing, and can finally break free from the confines of the Skype network.

You will be able to make a video call with up to 16 people at once, and everyone in the conference can be on different instant messengers.

I may just start streaming a camera pointed at our AeroGarden (-;

Yahoo Live allows anyone with a webcam to stream live video of themselves to a dedicated site. They call it “a platform for live video.” It is very similar to existing live streaming services like Stickam, Justin.tv and Ustream and Blogtv. Users create a channel, authorize their webcam and start broadcasting to the public. Other people can drop by and watch, or choose to participate via video, sound or text chat.

It turns out that the iPod Touch has one major difference from earlier iPods when it comes to video connectivity.

On earlier iPods with video you could use the same plug as for your headphones to get a composite video signal out - very handy and compact. With the iPod Touch this is no longer the case, you have to use one of the very few solutions that use the dock connector to give you the necessary video signals out.

While looking for Video-out cables I cam across this from ilounge.com :

I've just run a series of tests on using Xmeeting running on my MacBook Air to connect into video conferences using Tandbergs video conferencing kit.

And it works, sort of, almost out of the box. The main problem was that video quality was not terribly good (as a matter of fact the video did not show up at all on one of the MacBooks we used for testing.

Until we changed the video codec setup to this :

i.e. the H.263 and H.264 codes were turned off, and suddenly everything worked beautifully
