OpenTalkLive 3.17

http://www.opentalklive.com/

Software that allows users to talk with other distant individuals is not unusual these days, but some of these programs can be rather expensive. Fortunately, OpenTalk Live is free, and allows users to talk with up to 100 people at a time. While the program may seem to be suited for socializing, one can imagine that could be used for effective videoconferencing in either the worlds of businesses or higher education. This particular version is compatible with computers running Windows 98 and newer. [KMG]

Contained within a streamlined silver package is jetAudio 6.2.8 Basic. It presents a welcome alternative to other multimedia players, and it allows users to utilize a number of equalizers, speed controls, and of course, the cross-fade option. Additionally, for the truly brave, the application also includes a synchronized lyrics display for karaoke. This version is compatible with computers running Windows 98, Me, 2000, and XP. [KMG]
