Architectural Technologist – Skype beta

Well I was talking to Jon Pickup of Archoncad this morning, and he showed me the updated Skype beta for the Mac, it allowed him to show me his screen, instead of the camera, now this is truly amazing, and one that any Technologist should embrace, just think of it, talking to your contractor and instead of sending him a file, which is great, but some times a pain, you can show him on the screen, Jon was going over some of the details he is putting together for the next training, and I was stunned by the sped and resolution, I pulled the screen to its limits and I could clearly see all the detail and text. But and there is always a but, its beta, and Jons mouse cursor, was not visible, and he tried to get the camera back and for some reason this was not happening. But its beta and I an now eagerly awaiting the updates
