Skype 2.0 video conference works behind firewalls

Folks,

Today I tested Skype 2.0 build 2.0.0.63 beta (download it from here) to see whether we can setup video conference, when I am behind a firewall (as it is in my case). The test was successful – Skype 2.0 allowed me to make a video conference even though I am behind a firewall.

Just to mention that I tried to do the same with MSN Messenger 7.5, but it didn’t work out.

Say *hello* to the era of free video conferencing! I find this really fascinating, and for example we will try tomorrow to setup a video conference with a prospective client. This would be a definite plus for us, because the client will not only have voice, but also visuals, which will help us build credibility easier.
