Communication has always been an important aspect of life. Skype and Yahoo! Messenger are two of the leaders in this industry, and both two offer text chat and voice and video calls. In many instant-messaging systems, Skype and Yahoo! Messenger are many people’s absolute favorites. Let’s begin the comparison of them to decide which one you will choose. And then the ways will be listed to tell you how to record and save Skype and Yahoo! Messenger video calling easily.

 

Comparison of Features

Skype is compact and is extremely fast. It is very easy to use and hardly ever crashes. Its many features do not slow down the program at all. The call quality is excellent and is usually scratch-free. Problems hardly ever occur.

 

Yahoo! Messenger is loaded with features, but the program is very slow. It is fairly easy to use and is very innovative. The custom graphical user interface will cause many problems and can often make the program not respond.

 

Comparison of Chat Engine

Skype allows the user to chat using its simplistic chat engine. It is extremely easy to navigate through and is lightning fast. Skype Chat also allows you to chat with more than one person in the same chat window. For instance, if you and your colleagues were separated and wanted to communicate together, everyone could sign into Skype and participate in the group chat. The group chat creator can additionally send invites to certain members to include them in the chat.

 

Yahoo! Messenger's chat engine is more bulky and slower. However, the Yahoo! Chat engine contains many more features. IMVironments, chatting backgrounds, are exceptionally fun to experiment with. Additionally, "Audibles," animated emoticons that talk, make your chatting experience tremendously entertaining. When you are chatting, you can play games with your friend and share photos. However, Yahoo! Messenger does not support group chat.

 

Comparison of Telephone Service

Both Skype and Yahoo! Messenger provide telephone service, known as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). Skype allows you to call other Skype members for free. Video calling is enabled. Skype also lets you call telephone numbers for a small fee, using a service called SkypeOut. Additionally, Skype provides SkypeIn, a system that gives you a phone number that others can call. You can pick up the call on your computer and talk. If you are not there, the caller can leave a message in your voice mail. Conference calling is provided for free. Skype's telephone service is amazing, reliable, and very easy to use.

 

Yahoo! Messenger also provides free PC-to-PC telephone service. PC-to-Phone and Phone-to-PC service requires a fee. Voicemail is free, however, unlike Skype. Video calling is also included. A drawback, though, is the sound and video calling quality. Sometimes, you cannot hear the call and you have to call again. When using the video, the quality is extremely bad and it is tough to see the person. Group calling is not included.

 

Both Skype and Yahoo! Messenger are wonderful IM systems with numerous members. Whichever one you choose, they will certainly provide you with an excellent communication system to meet your needs.

BAN +1

eu banez primul post de obicei, orice ar scrie.

 

Skype e o retea construita pe o alta retea de file-sharing, chiar de piraterie

skype, fata de yahoo, foloseste un protocol gen torente, peer to peer, p2p

calculatoarele nostre se conecteza unul la altul prin intermediul unei baze de date

asta chiar si in comunicarea video-audio

intr-un fel de obsedat de intimitate, si de lege, skype e mai sigur decat yahoo

 

de exemplu,in cazul p2p, un server, flash-video sau nu, decat inlesneste comunicarea,

(da un branci celor doi ca sa-i impreune si apoi pleaca din anturaj)

pe cand un server ca yahoo, oricare servere intermediare inseamna asta, te tine direct in capacana

nu poti face nimic fara el, si tot ce scri, ce vorbesti, ochii tai in camera video, totul se inregistreaza!

 

skype e un peste care da 2 dume care combina 2 oameni, apoi se duce la treaba lui

cu yahoo o faci doar in hotelul lui, in conditiile lui

in timp, iar asta se va vedea tehnic, serverele flash de tip p2p vor desfininta serverele traditionale

si asta nu pentru ca oamenii vor devenii mai constienti de valoarea intimitatii lor

ci doar pentru ca in "peer to peer" serverele implicate nu consuma banda lor

asa cum am spus, skype e un peste, iar yahoo un hotel

skype nu plateste nimic pentru ca ii lasa liberi pe cei doi sa se petreaca cum vor

pe cand yahoo e fortat.."sau mai degraba ii forteaza", sa-i bage in hotelul lui, unde evident, ca in orice hotel, sunt cheltuieli mari

 

pe noi de doare in direct fix in bile ca e yahoo sau skype, msn sau gmail

dar cu bani se fac toate, si banii se stie ca e lucru d*cu

skype mananca mai putin bani, si e foarte probabil ca va castiga in cele din urma

(cu toata reclama si tevatura pe care o face yahoo)

 

sper ca v-am aburit destul de limpede,

eu insusi am un server p2p si mi-a luat mult,draci nonstop,ca sa-l fac sa mearga

e simplu, fiecare din voi isi va consuma banda lui de internet, si nu pe e a mea

am, de exemplu, siteuri de videochat, care ..toate lumea stie ca video inseamana multi MBytes

eu nu consum nimic din banda mea daca voi vorbiti sau va vedeti pe video 24/23 ore

pentru ca eu va dau decat scanteia, restul voi o sa va dati foc..of.

 

bine. si mie mi-a fost dor de voi
