I want to have a webcam "videoconference" with a friend on e-mail

I have a webcam in my laptop and so odes my friend. We want to be able to "talk" kind of like instant messaging only with the webcams so we are kind of "video conferencing" with each other..
I do not know how to go and just make a video of me except in my e-mail software... then I send it to my friend and when she is done she send me one back, but this takes time. Can you help me figure out how to do that?

Look in your owners manual for the laptop and see to make the camera work. It will only work when you are on line and she is on line. Or you can go to the store you bought it from and have them show you how to work it

One way is to be under instant messenger and turn on your webcams and you will be having a live conference via webcams and typing or talking thru microphones as well if you want, as far as emailing a recorded video it depends on what messenger you are using .....yahoo wont let you email anything over 10mb and most videos from webcams are bigger than that, the other messengers like hotmail i dont know the size you can email. ..but if it is live conference you want the best way is thru instant messenger and voice or typing :)
