It’s becoming more and more difficult to separate yourself from the pack with a video chatting product when Microsoft’s Skype, Google’s Hangouts, and Apple’s FaceTime provide stiff competition.  However, cool product Oovoo is giving users plenty of extra features that distinguish it from the rest of the pack.  Unlike the competition from major corporations, Oovoo offers customers not just chatting but also video recording and uploading tools.  Any users who want to record video podcasts or post video blogs on social media sites don’t have to use any outside programs when making calls on Oovoo.  People can record video calls directly through Oovoo saving them time and effort.  Given the rise of independent video blogs and media on the web, Oovoo is likely appealing to video bloggers and content creators due to this feature.  This cool product even lets users upload directly to YouTube through the software without even having to open a web browser.  People will have to link their YouTube accounts to Oovoo to take advantage of this feature.  Anyone who has difficulty linking their video account to Oovoo will need to find an online computer support service to help them.
