This is our 10th tip in our series “Mac OS X Snow Leopard – 15 Tips You Need To Know”.

But now with iChat you can not only talk to your friends but see them as well.

iChat also includes a fully featured instant messaging client that can connect with

  • iChat,
  • AIM,
  • Jabber, and
  • Google Talk.

Most Mac’s includes a built-in iSight camera and mic. So you don’t have to go out and buy anything to get going.

iChat even allows you to have a conference video chat with up to 4 different people (including yourself)!

If you want to use iChat to it’s fullest you must purchase Mobile Me. The 4-person video chat will only work if you have Mobile Me (1-person video chat will work without Mobile Me).
