vSkype video conferencing adds multi-user and collaboration

Everton | Jun 15, 2005 | View Comments


Santa Cruz Networks have launched a beta release of vSkype, the first multiuser video conferencing extension to Skype for Microsoft Windows.

I’m not sure if the service is compatible with SkypeSee which I think is due for launch this year.

In my latest informal testing, I’ve found that the quality on MSN 7.0 is the best available in the UK. Services like Sightspeed need more upstream than most ISPs offer in the UK – to experience a decent video quality you really need at least 256Kb in my view.
