Weekend Favs November Twenty-two

TinyChat – quick video chats have become pretty popular online but there’s still the hassle of making sure both parties have the software and accounts to initiate a video call. Skype, for example is very popular for video chat, but both parties have be using the tool. If you want to initiate a dead simple, no software, no hassle video chat with one of more look no further than TinyChat. Of course both people need a camera and microphone, but then they go to the same URL, such as http://p2p.tinychat.com/chatnow and boom, private chat. There are premium options that allow you to white label and own chat addresses.
