Skype anyone?

[Gwen aka Punstergal]

I remember Skype, back in the day (lol).

Now I use Ventrilo almost exclusively for voice chat (does not do video chat). Ventrilo was a necessary move for me because it supports large groups in one conversation AND because it can be run behind my MMORPGs without interfering with the game (voice chat is fairly important for game objectives which require precise coordination of groups of people- especially when half of them are clueless as to what's going on). Skype (because of it's video aspect, I imagine, which is useless behind a game anyway) seemed to eat too much of my system resources
