I've tried to get online guidance for Moray. It worked out great!
I got to see how others work, immidiate answers for questions, bug fixes,
and some tips & advices, and that's only the start. It was much better than
reading a documentation, or just using trail & error.

I used Netmeeting, but it caused troubles so I used VNC instead. I used ICQ
to monitor online presence and exchange IP addresses.

The problem was that it was fairly slow. Dailupers will may have the same
problem, though it is still very useful after all. To boost the connection
speed, shrink your resolution and transmit 8-bit colors.

Another use for this video conference is to control computers from remote,
like the one who is offering his computer for Pov-ray renderings.

You should try that! (use a password. especially if you're using VNC, that
gives total mouse and keyboard control)
