Photo taken with my built in iSight camera on my MacBook. Getting the built-in iSight was a big reason for getting the computer--I just hope I can find less gratuitous uses that this one.

My wife also has a MacBook with iSight, and we did some video chatting recently while she was in Chicago. That was pretty cool, and much easier with much higher quality than the few webchats I have participated in over the last 10 years. Video phones seemed so futuristic when I was a kid, but my son (the goofy one in the photo), even realized as he was video chatting that he would likely be video chatting with us the rest of his life (if and when he leaves home).
