Easy Grandparent-approved Video Conferencing

[Venkman]

So like anyone who's bought computer stuff, I've got piles of ball video camera. I'm configuring an old rig for my Mom (old for me, way very much new for her) and would like to install the video camera so we could occasionally let the kids videoconf with grandma.

Is there a good program out there easy for her to manage? I'm only really familiar with LiveMeeting and it feels more like an MMO UI than something my mother would be able to manage.

Skype is pretty simple, although I haven't tried the mom test with it.

I always thought Yahoo was the easiest, but MSN Messenger has the best picture.  MSN is fairly foolproof, I think.

Messenger is darn easy. I use it with my parents and they always bitch to my sister that has a Mac about having to use other stuff.

Ok, I'll check out Skype and Messenger. Thanks!
