Still the best video conferencing software in the world. Tried Google video, yahoo video…etc., MSN though not perfect but still is among the best in delivering video quality.

Megumi is boss pose eating porridge.

I miss them both.

I bought two Logitech QuickCam® Family E3500 webcam for the above purpose, which I am quite happy with the quality of them. Delivering good quality photo (in Malaysia slow internet line service), good exposure and white balance.

The cam can be placed on the monitor screen easily, but no securely. No clip, but a V shape stand (can be adjusted) to put on the monitor. The design is fine, as clip sometimes does not match thick monitor.

Google Gtalk…quality real bad!

I used to love Google Gtalk, as it is simple, easy and fast! Quality was superb when I use internet phone conversation with my family oversea.

However, now Gtalk quality is really bad. I still like to use it for messaging, but when coming to voice talk…it just doesn’t work. The opposite just can’t hear what my voice, real bad quality. As compared to Live Messenger, it is miles behind. I love to use Live Messenger now for voice call.

I guess the quality drop is mainly due to the popularity of gmail/gtalk now. With the increment of users, quality drops. This is bad…

NO!
