skype is what my dad uses for this kind of thing, and i am going to trust his opinion on this one. another idea would be stickam, which is that site all of those scene camwhores use. just throwing the idea out there, im pretty sure Skype is still the way to go. |

yea it does.
like, from the contact list you can start the video/audio things, but usually if you just click it's just IM.
idk who uses that part of it though. it's kindof like who uses the audio thing on aim or whatever? it's primarily a video/audio conference program/service, not an im service.

what time is this going down on thursday? i am working form 5:30 to 11:00. i'll get back to you on this. all details will be posted tomorrow I'm confused about Skype. In their help section it says: How do I start a video conference? Video calls are only possible with two participants. Unfortunately, video conferences are not possible at the moment. Can a couple of you guys get on skype and add me so we can test some things out before thursday? My Skype name is CrunchyCo |

EDIT: This meeting has been canceled. Alright here's the details: CRUNCHYCO MEETING - THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 18 Time: 3pm Place: CrunchyCo HQ! 1822 Rainier Ave Everett, WA 98201 This meeting is open to CrunchyCo Team Members listed on this page only. You may show up in person, or join in via webcam/voice chat on Skype. For Skype attendees: add "CrunchyCo" to your contacts list. We'll be on skype the day of the meeting at 3pm and hop into a conference call with you. When the meeting is over (probably around 6pm), we'll all chill and play some Super Smash Bros. Brawl! Non-team members may join in at this time. In addition to posting this on the forum, I'll be texting and/or calling people as well to remind them. It's okay when people have to work or whatever, that happens. The whole point of having regular meetings is that people can expect them and plan ahead to get off work and come if they choose to. Nothing is mandatory, it's quite casual and we don't expect everyone to be at every meeting because we know people have things to do. Just come to the ones you can/want to. This is the first one so it's kind of thrown together, but from now on everyone can expect this same thing to occur on a regular basis. 3pm on the 1st Thursday and 3rd Thursday of every month. Sound good? The meetings will always occur even if no one comes and it's just Aaron and I, but all team members are always encouraged to attend whether in person or on Skype. |

Unfortunately, video conferences are not possible at the moment. yea.. i don't get this either. if you go to their main site page about videocalls they mention the word "videoconferencing" alot. same if you google "skype videoconferencing".. and yet i can't find any real yes or no explanation on their site. |
