Free Webcam Chat

Webcam chatting is becoming a very popular way for people to communicate. In the past the only way of communicating with people on the internet was either via a webcam, email or a chat website.

Now with the help of MSN Messenger and webcams from manufacturers like Logitech you are able to communicate with family and friends via Free Webcam Chat using your computer and internet connection. Below is a step by step guide on using MSN Messenger with a webcam.

Step 1

If you haven't got a webcam you can buy one from Amazon.com. Our guide was written with the help of a Logitech webcam and it worked perfectly.

Step 2

Once you have your webcam you will need to download and install MSN Messenger but before you do this you need a Microsoft .NET Passport to use MSN Messenger. If you have a Hotmail or MSN.com e-mail address you already have a Passport. If you don't have a Hotmail or MSN.com email address sign up here for a free Hotmail account

Step 3

After you have installed MSN Messenger and opened the program you can start adding contacts that also have MSN Messenger installed. You simply need to enter the email address of your contact and MSN Messenger will do the rest.

Step 4

You can test that your contact has been added properly by choosing Actions and then Send an Instant Message. Once your contact has replied you are ready to use your webcam

Step 5

Select Send my Webcam from the Actions menu. Choose your contact and wait till they accept your invitation. Your contact should then see you. Hopefully they also have a webcam and you are able to see them. Enjoy!!

Notes

• You may have a problem if your contact does not have the latest version of the MSN Messenger software. Get your contact to upgrade and then try again.
• It is possible to listen to your contact as well as see them via webcam. You will need additional hardware for this. A microphone and sound card.
