VoIP Lowdown - Fri Sep 29, 2006

Ken Camp's New IP Media Blog
Ken Camp has moved his old blog about VOIP, IP media, and unified communciations. Congrats and good luck. From what I can tell, posts from the old site have been moved over.

Video Chat: SightSpeed or iChat?
Andy Abramson points to a test that PhoneBoy and Luca Filigheddu did to test iChat vs SightSpeed's video-conferencing features, and SightSpeed won. I have not yet had an opportunity to try video-conferencing (see video etiquette rules), but I do love Sightspeed's video chat quality. I'm more than impressed with it, and when more people that I know install it, maybe I'll video-conference then. Now while I like SightSpeed's video quality, I can watch fairly high-quality IPTV channels with Skype.

Fairweather VoIP Call Quality
The New York Times had an indepth, slightly techy piece a few days ago about call quality on different types of VoIP service, as well as fairly easy-to-follow explanation of factors affecting call quality. A interesting piece, but I hope that the general public reading it don't get the wrong impression about VoIP in general. I've had excellent quality calls from both Skype (all the way across the world to a friend who sounded like he was a few feet away) and from Hullo, which sounded crystal clear.
