Skype Video Calling for iPhone

FaceTime for the iPhone 4, iPod touch, and Mac changed the way we communicate with each other on a daily basis. It revolutionized human relationships. Not only can you ask the person your on the phone with, how they are, but you can actually see how they really are feeling. The only negative thing about Facetime is that you have to own an Apple product with a front facing camera. 

Skype is a website that made free video calling between computers with a web cam. Their intention was Apple's exact intention with iChat. Well now iPhone 4 and iPod touch users can finally get in on the action. After a long and anticipating wait, Skype has finally announced free video calling on the iPhone 4/ iPod touch Skype app. So now, we can all take the basis of Facetime, and use it with anybody that owns a web cam and a Skype account. All you have to do is make a free Skype account, and download the free Skype app from the App store.

iPod Touch 4th Generation Review

Aesthetics

When you first turn on the device you will notice it's beautiful 3.5 inch Retina Display. Also, if your a first time user at the top is a camera that is normally used for pictures and FaceTime. On the silver back side you have another camera that can also be used for pictures, FaceTime and video. 

Features

One of the most used features by me is the video recording which shoots in 720p video. Great for vlogging or just documenting some memories. The less used feature by me is FaceTime, which allows you to video chat with other iPod Touch's (4th Generation), iPhone 4's and Macs (with iSight cameras). I recently found another service Tango, also a video chatting service but this allows you to do via 3G and to other devices (such as Android phones). 
 Another feature used by most people is Game Center, basically Game Center allows you to play with your friends on compatible iOS 4 games. One feature not noticed by users is Gyro, this allows the iPod to detect advance movements; Provides a more precise gaming experience. If your interested in purchasing one you can do so here.
