Does anyone have any recommendations for how best to do webcam chat? I tried yahoo messenger, and omg, am I horrified. It came with so much crap … it even stuck a yahoo toolbar into my firefox!! :crying: I feel like my computer was mutilated. The only other free way to do this, that I know of, is Windows Live Messenger … but I’m afraid of using that, too. It can’t possibly be a neat and trim software without extra crap oozing out the edges either, can it?? It will probably be not as bad as this yahoo junk, though. Okay the third option I know of is getting Trillian Pro (which I’m confident won’t let me down), but it’s $25! =.
With yahoo, you can always choose custom install, just choose the core application and you’ll be fine. And with Skype, yeah, you can use it for IMs too.
Yeah … I lost all my trust in yahoo. Even with the custom installation (which I didn’t even notice the first time around). Heres a page describing all that is wrong with yahoo messenger. click
I had to install it again for a little bit 'cuz my gf was in a hurry and didn’t want to try new program, like skype … but this is only temporary I tell you! I’ll wean her over to skype … as soon as I try it out myself heh heh. I’m gonna d/l it right now.
