If you're dealing with Mac users, iChat is a MUCH better app. When I
experimented with it, I found sound quality to be less than stellar,
whereas, with iChat I was able to have trans-Atlantic conversations via the
internet that rivalled the telephone for clarity and latency.
PS Ted, just as a security caveat... it may not be the best idea in the
world to stick as much contact and personal info into your .signature (since
this information is archived and searchable on the web for all to see and
harvest).
PSS Gmail is sooo much better than Yahoo or Hotmail for free e-mail addys
(especially for mailing list purposes). If anyone wants one, let me know.
