You've probably seen FaceTime and think that this is how cool. Contrary to popular belief, the mobile video calls were not invented by Apple and pretty much any 3 G phone sold today (at least in Europe and Asia) comes with this capability. It doesn't even have to be a smartphone - many 3 G-enabled phones can do the job just as easily. What is Apple is nevertheless important - it call cool video (or at least so it seems).
The problem with FaceTime, however, is that it can run between two devices Apple. Assuming that you are owner of an iPhone proud, you do video chat with your buddy which has an Android smartphone. There is a solution for this situation - you use some third-party app instead. Here are 5 applications that allow other iPhone and Android users to video call:
Fring
The big thing of Fring is that apart from iOS and Android devices, it also works on select Nokia E7 and N8 Symbian smartphones. In addition, it is the only app pack that supports video group, welcoming calls up to 4 persons to participate in a video call. It offers VoIP (calling any number of "regular" phone less) while offering the possibility to follow your friends through IM like MSN Messenger, Google Talk, AIM and ICQ networks. Strongly recommended!
Movicha
As Fring, Movicha also beyond mobile platforms of Apple and Google, to ensure that Symbian and Windows Mobile users can join the fun, too. BlackBerry version should be added soon or at least site Web du Movicha suggests. The description of the app, you can count on end-to-end encrypted calls. Personally, I haven't tried it out, but it appears certainly promising.
Skype
What can we say about Skype? You already probably know everything there is to know. Recent updates to the iOS and Android apps finally allowed to stay in touch with their comrades of Skype, anywhere in the world, users on the go. Due to its popularity, Skype is pretty much an application must have, we strongly recommend downloading. Apart from the fundamental vocation, Skype also allows you to send SMS for less.
Tango
As far as I know, Tango was the first mobile application allowing iPhone and Android users to see each other in the form of a video call. Disadvantage, Tango does not support Instant Messaging which can be an agreement breaking for some. However, it is useful to mention they have managed to raise some solid capital and I have no doubt that they add you new features that we are talking about.
Yahoo Messenger
In the same way to Skype, Yahoo Messenger also adds SMS to the mixture, with an option to send free texts to your friends in USA, Philippines, Viet Nam, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Canada, Pakistan, Kuwait and the Thailand. In addition, you can use Yahoo app to share images with your friends and chat with them as long as they are using Yahoo Messenger or MSN Messenger.
And it is in this regard. Did I missed a few app? Feel free to drop your two cents in the form of comments below.
Dusan uses smartphones since their introduction, and is now after the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is that it is more enthusiastic and written on this subject is the next logical thing to do. He believes that using a smartphone, is that all those who cares of their time. In addition to its interest in mobile phones, Dusan also likes to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of access and management of your information from any device no matter where you are simply surprised him. If this is a list of online tasks, memo, or a video sharing social network, it is to try it. He admitted however, he is always looking for the ultimate organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application on the web. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com, which became later part of IntoMobile. He lives in South East Europe, of the Serbia, where he edited the site on a daily basis.
