Just want to pass on cautionary advice about having meetings using Skype. I am a mac user and am so used to iChat delineating audio and video as separate. The other day I had to have a makeshift meeting with an internet team in Spain (our own Bluermutt was there as well!) and hit the CALL button thinking it would just be audio. The dudes in Spain started out the conversation saying "Nice shirt, Fredo!" You see, I was sitting there in the nude and didn't realize the camera was enacted with a call. The whole five person team was sitting there (obviously fully dressed, we aren't nudists after all.) I'm not sure how much they saw, but thank God I didn't get up to get a cup of coffeeeeeeeee...

you know, if I remember correctly I had just taken a shower and was in the process of looking for my clothes... I mean, I don't normally take to sitting around naked. I can't totally explain how I found myself in that position, but it happened! And it was thoroughly humiliating.

I often stroll around naked in the house - gives the neighbours something to talk about! i lost all sense of shame the first time i went to a sento in japan. that's all naked.
but i imagine Spaniards are quite prudish about that!

you can go through the prefs in skype and set it so that you have to manually activate video. I have it set to that as I always have my cock out when Im at home and chatting online. [a habit I picked up from jdg]

LOL!!
If you had called Britian instead of Spain, they'd have been too polite to tell you anything at all.

Also, you mac users are so lame, expecting that your computer will dress you!
"Now you can work naked with the iClothes videochat plugin!"
