It provides realtime video AND a clientless flash VoIP service, chat, other videos, pictures etc., essentially this is video, but the packaging is very compelling, and I was quick to see potential business opportunities for it. Maybe video is compelling, as long as it is packaged and presented the right way. Today, I signed up for http://www.stickam.com , it integrated very easily into my blogger blog.

Me personally, I am in your camp. Folks like Erik Lagerway, however, have this strong conviction that citizen journalism, for instance, is an untapped market. I think the jury's still out.

But someone has to ask the question though~ Does anyone really want video? Skype's video is cool, as is MSN, Yahoo's etc., what are the business reasons for Video, (get your mind out of the gutter Alec :) ) Maybe it is just me, but I don't particularily like it, voice is quicker - I can multitask without appearing rude on camera, and I don't have to be stationary. Do IMlike providers add it just because it is as relatively easy as voice? and younger users constantly ask for it? Personally, I think stereo conferencing is more compelling, but no one seems to be working on integrating that technology... I like Sightspeed, it works great.
