OK, I need an app for video chatting (like Face Time, Google Hangouts video chat, etc.) where I can use the forward facing camera instead of the rear facing camera..... So I am basically just streaming a video to someone that I am taking, instead of them seeing me....So that I can see what they are seeing while I am videoing something in front of me....

TIA

basically any video chat i am aware of lets you switch cameras. facetime, google, skype for sure.

OK, well do you know in Google Hangouts where the changing camera option would be? I don't remember seeing anything like that....and it is sort of difficult to figure it out without actually starting a video call with someone.

is there a button that looks like a movie camera with arrows circling around it?

if so, it's that. in 2013, according to my googling, it was in the bottom right.

OK, I will try it as soon as I get someone to video chat with me.

P.S. Gooch doesn't even have Google Hangouts.

It was a button of a phone with an arrow under it at the top right.

I did not. I'm still having a hard time believing I can see my friends on my phone in New York and LA and they show me their apartments and stuff. Wow!

When wireless is perfectly applied the whole earth will be converted into a huge brain, which in fact it is, all things being particles of a real and rhythmic whole. We shall be able to communicate with one another instantly, irrespective of distance. Not only this, but through television and telephony we shall see and hear one another as perfectly as though we were face to face, despite intervening distances of thousands of miles; and the instruments through which we shall be able to do his will be amazingly simple compared with our present telephone. A man will be able to carry one in his vest pocket.

I'm going to get either a 6s or 6s+ when they come out. the + seems maybe too enormous. do you guys that have a + have any problems lugging it around in your pocket?

No.

if you could do it again would you still get the + or go to the 6? be completely unbiased here if possible. also, with what you know about me which one should I get?

I like the size of the 6 better but the battery life of the + is better. I'm about 50/50 right now. Doesn't sound like anything is going to come out on the S announcement that would sway me in either direction more so than the other.
