We're having our first child in 10 weeks and as our family doesn't live in the same town we're looking to have webcam chats with them so they feel a part of the baby growing up and so the baby knows who they are as they grow up.
I've got a Microsoft Lifecam Cinema connected to the HTPC on the main TV in the lounge so just need suggestions on the best software to use. I can't see a need for anything other than a 1 to 1 although maybe birthdays and christmas may mean multiple participants.
Thoughts so far:
1) Skype
2) Google Video Chat
3) Facebook Chat
4) MSN
5) Google+
Has anyone got any experience or recommendations for such an application?
