I video chat with my b4 every day. She lives 200 km away. We could only meet each other ice a month. Thanks tango.

I think video is huge and will just get bigger. You can’t just get on a plane and visit someone 500 miles away, unless your rich. I don’t slow ays have time to go visit vendors of face to face chats, thats where video is great as well.

Personally I don’t see the attraction of video chat. If I want to look at someone’s face bad enough I’ll just go visit them in person.

Video calling has never been popular, going back many decades.

Tango uses the least amount of data video . an hour of video chat via tango uses about 0.5 megabytes, compared to 1GB via skype.

Still not into people seeing me when I’m talking to them. I don’t want to roll out of bed and video chat or have them see un-done hair or put make-up on. That’s the joy of being a remote worker: not having to do that every day like I did at an office job.

The kids use it far more often, for calling cousins on the West Coast. For that, we default to FaceTime first, then Skype.
