iChat AV

I bought a new computer yesterday to replace my aging Mac laptop. This one has a video camera built into the top of the screen. I figured I'd have some fun with it so I turned on Photo Booth which is a Mac application that allows you to take pictures of yourself through funky filters. Megan and I had a blast with that.

Then I remembered that Jenny and Tom had bought laptops recently as well. So they should be able to video chat. I was skeptical, because I had never seen it work before. But I reckoned I'd give it a go. And it worked. It worked really well in fact. We will probably do it again this weekend when Jenny is around. It's a whole lot more interactive than talking on the phone.
