Everybody wants to do desktop video.  Apparently Sony and AOL are ready to jump in now, too.  All this to be there before Skype brings a video solution to market. 

I don’t understand the fuss.  Desktop video just isn’t that compelling.  To get a good picture you need to:

1. Wear the right clothing. Makeup too, if you’re female.
2. Be lit properly (do you have a video studio in your office?).
3. Have the camera positioned properly (have you ever noticed how desktop video invariably shows the other person’s forehead, and not much else –> that’s because the camera is on top of the monitor!).
