I was wondering what applications, besides iChat, can successfully video chat with the new macs with built in isight cameras. I use Adium out of convenience but i dont know if it can video conference.

Thanks,

Danny
 
Yahoo Messenger works great. you can try out aMSN or Mercury as well though i dislike this two programs personally....
 
I'm not sure about iSight with Windows. You can use any webcam on Windows with Yahoo Messenger for Windows.
 
i tried using the new yahoo messenger beta with the isight camera. the camera pops up fine and i can see myself but the other computer i was communicating with DOES NOT have a webcam and the person i was talking to could not see me at all. I can see myself on my computer but the other person does not see anything BUT we can still chat. Any one else have this experience?

Thanks,

Danny
