Skype Video Mac OS X
Skype has recently released the 1.5 version for Mac OS X with video chat. Skype audio quality is excellent however when trying out the video chat with a friend I found it to cut in and out. And this is with Skype being the sole application running on my fairly new machine.
I had actually planned on recording a podcast tonight as I had the rare opportunity of having several friends on Skype at the same time but I wasn’t able to sort out the software side of things. Afterwards, I did manage to find an excellent tutorial on how to record using Audio Hijack. It’s worth checking out. If anyone is interested in being featured in the next podcast, let me know.

Update
