VoIP using Skype

As a means of communication, VoIP - when first released was used between business companies as a modern way of holding conferences. But in this day and age anyone with an internet connection and the right software on their home computer or laptop can have a video chat with anyone; anywhere.

Personally I use Skype as a way of talking to my Father in Wales, my Friend Mike in Germany or even any of my other friends living around the corner.

Here is a preview of a video call I had with my friend Tom (who is also on my College course)
P.S - Ignore the gesture behind Tom.





Another step forward using this protocol is the adaptation in modern smart phones and tablets such as the Motorola Xoom (Purposely ignoring the Apple devices)


Also, possibly in the near future, a concept that has recently been tried and tested - 3D video calling. According to AndroidHeadlines.com (See below for link) - Sharp announced 2 glasses free 3D phones that can both capture and display 3D images. Possibly opening doors for 3D video conferencing if a manufacturer were to place a 3D camera on the front.
