I got to play with a GREAT webcam app today: EvoCam ... Works like a dream
in OSX and my iBot FW cam ...

That was what I was looking for ... But nothing really like netmeeting

I just borrowed a book on webcams to learn about them. (I doubt macs

I just assumed that if I wanted to broadcast or stream from a website, 
having a mac is not an issue.
However, if I wanted to have a video call with someone...I can't most

As long as your camera can be used on your Mac it will work with Yahoo.
It's not Camera dependent.  Works also in OS 9.2

You can try http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/ a few Creative cameras 
are listed there as supported.

Smith Micro sells VideoLink Pro, which supports the H.323 standard, 
which is what NetMeeting uses, iirc. 
http://www.smithmicro.com/Mac_index.tpl?cart=105620630414002576 but 
it's Classic only.

Although not much help at the moment, OS 10.3 (Panther's) version of 
iChat contains inbuilt support for web-cam conversations.

You may find that 10.3 will natively support your cam them. I am hoping 
it will, I have about 4 web-cams knocking around the house and not one 
of them works with OS X as of yet.

Not sure about that ... Haven't not done any webcam thing on a PC in a while
... But here my 2 cents:

I have a FW iBot cam which I got to work just nicely using iVisit and QT
broadcaster, no troubles there at all ... I am sure waiting for iChat with
webcam support ... 

Now If I could only find a good website telling me how to set up the cam as
a webcam (that old style, non streaming, new pic every 10 secs), I'd be
happy ... Nowadays looking for that in google only reveals xxx stuff ..

Cheers

Have you tried looking for info like that on something like techtv.com? 
I was just thinking that if you could find a site with some decent 
information on it, you could bypass the xxx. Otherwise the boards at 
macaddict.com have been helpful for me.

Just a thought if you havent given those a go yet.

Not if you know where to look. A quick search with Google's Mac search  
engine,

http://www.google.com/mac?hl=enlr=ie=ISO-8859- 
1q=webcam+netmeetingbtnG=Google+Search

brings back a bunch of links, several of which look promising, none of  
which are xxx.

This one in particular looks like it might be a starting point, if you  
haven't been there already:

http://netconference.about.com/cs/camsoftwaremac/

The key to using Google these days, as it becomes more and more  
commercial, is learning to use the Google syntax,

http://www.google.com/apis/reference.html#2_2

to restrict and direct your search. Of course, there's also Google's  
subject and country specific search engines that are well worth using.  
(Especially the Mac one)
