Mostly what we wanted to find out was that the video quality was solid. You can send video messages, and use text chat as well. The free version provides two way video capability (and ads), and monthly plans allow for up to 6 way video conversations, with the top plan also providing screen sharing. This view a bit like the iChat video wall effect you can also have them stack up in a narrow column sidebar so you can do more things at the desktop.
OOVOO HACKING FULL
We were able to have pretty clear video conversation between me here in Arizona, and colleagues Phil and Mark in Brisbane:Ĭlick image for full size, try to ignore the ads! We did have some interesting success with a smaller scale group meeting tool– ooVoo (crazy ASCII like name, eh)? a tool for doing video chat.
The built in tool that provides data on a user’s local network latency (the little green chicklet in the upper right corner) has shown in our testing that when this hits above 270 msec audio loss kicks in– I suffer from this myself with my rural cable connection, and in some tests yesterday with colleagues in Brisbane, they were getting latency well over 300. I’ve been doubtful of the connectivity possibility (mainly the audio) of our Adobe Connect room we use for our monthly seminars. With our growing number of NMC organizations in Australia I’ve been exploring/wondering of ways to better connect and grow this community down under.
