Nice one, Peter. Yah, there's more and more of these sort of webapps coming on-line almost by the day, now. Another apparently by the name of zoom.us works along similar lines ( https://zoom.us/ ); this one, seemingly, geared more toward enterprise customers.peterw wrote:Don't want to hijack the topic but I thought that some may find this useful. Whilst Skype is ubiquitous. There are alternatives which have the advantage that you don't need an account and anyone can join and they work well. This is one that I have found. The first web site is the actual site to start the call and the second site is the web site describing it.

EDIT:- And within the last 24 hrs there's been the announcement of Windows/MacOS/Linux desktop versions of the iOS/Android Signal video-conferencing app.....although this one needs to be 'paired' with the phone app before you can use it. Many of these mentioned make use of real-time WebRTC/HTML5.
We're getting spoilt for choice, aren't we?
