In your main skype window (address list)

hi there, where exactly am i supposed to insert the two new nodes? the structure is rather complex and i don't want to try adding it to every single subnode. ;)

To #5,

I tested Skype video with a friend in New York. I'm in Oregon, so there's plenty of relay points to potentially bog down connection speeds and video/audio quality along the way.

Without a doubt, the Skype video was much, much better than iChat video. The picture was clearer, audio was better and the Skype video, when resized to half-screen, was awesome. (We were both using 15" MacBook Pros with Core 2 Duo and built-in iSight cameras.)

Too bad I only have one contact who also uses Skype, otherwise I could see using Skype more often. The video is great.

This tip fixed the damn isight kvality problem! it's amazing how buggy this software is and they on purpose made the skype with isight at a lower broadcast quality.
Thank you Tuaw for fixing this, been writing to Skype lame Indian support, with only idiotic replies. Yet again a reason NOT move all your IT industry to india....

The nice thing about Skype is that it works through pretty much any firewall. iChat is really fussy and fails to work. I wish Apple could mirror the robustness of Skype.

How do Skype video and voice compare to iChat?

Anyone know if this new version will allow video conferences with more than one other Skype user at a time?

I used to use Skype but since they were purchased by Ebay and will now charge for what once was a free item I say no thanks. Skype made money before (lots of it) and now Ebay wants to make even more to prop up their failing auction site. No Thanks. Find another sucker.

Nevermind, i'm such a noob!:) It just says it there in the link provided how it's done! Thanks!
