News Bytes From The Web

* Sony Offers "VoIP" *

Electronics giant, Sony, jumped on the VoIP (Voice over IP)
bandwagon recently to offer long distance calls through the
Internet. http://www.SonyIVE.com

They join a long list of providers competing for your Internet
phone call business, including: Skype, Google, and AOL.

Sony claims their service includes a video component that rates
superior to all other offerings.

Their IVE (Internet Video Everywhere) can also make video calls
to video enabled mobile phones, telephones and other devices
intended for video conferencing.

In fact, the IVE "Meeting Room" enables you to hold video
conference calls with up to six users just as you would a
regular telephone conference call.

Users also receive a unique "video phone number" which other
users can call and, if you don't answer, leave you a video
message.

The basic plan comes free of charge and goes as high as $20 a
month for the group calling and video "meeting" room features.

* Camtasia Alternative *

Camtasia software rates as the 800-lb. gorilla of the
screen-capture software market.

It enables you to capture your screen, narrate the action, and
publish your videos in multiple formats (including publishing to
FLASH for streaming on the Web).

Unfortunately, Camtasia comes with a stiff $300 price tag which
often inhibits the casual user from getting the software.

A less expensive alternative can be found at
http://www.AimOneSoft.com which publishes the Aim One Screen
Recorder.

This software captures either the full screen, window, or a
fixed region of your screen as an AVI or WMV video file.

This type of software can make the creation of software
tutorials and other computer training a breeze.

The one drawback to the software is that it does not convert to
flash, so that limits your video delivery over the Web to the
WMV file format (which will exclude MAC users).

* Urban Legends Reference Page *

Log on to http://www.Snopes.com and find a wealth of just the
type of information that nobody should pass along to anyone else.

Bill Gates giving away a million dollars if you forward this
email to 12 people?

AOL offering free housing to all Web designers?

Yahoo and Google founders set for a mud-wrestling match next
Saturday with a live simulcast on both sites?

Do you need to drink 8 glasses of water per day to avoid
dehydration?

The Web makes it almost too easy to create and pass along
rumors, legends and outright falsehood (along with destructive
"info-viruses" that cause people to delete important files from
their computers and encourage unwitting friends to do the same).

The next time you hear something that sounds odd (such as
Microsoft is preparing to market the "iLoo", and Internet
capable toilet), you should log on to Snopes.com and check it
out before taking it as "truth."

A few keywords in the search box will let you track down any
errant stories and check your facts before passing along the
message to your friends.

The site also offers a free update by email service so you can
stay current on all the latest gossip and nonsense floating
around online.
