Set up IceComm on a web site that only you and your kids can access, and give them the Chrome browser with a bookmark to go there at scheduled times
Very easy to set up server less video conferencing. Add a bit of TogetherJS to the mix and you've got realtime chat as well - without needing to install anything on any local computers besides the Chrome browser.
I use IceComm on my main server as the 'front door' to my business - I have a browser sitting on my front door all day, and whenever clients visit I'm ready for them. Its just like having a virtual front door to the business

I think the big elephant in the room is more to be found further upstream, in the area of manufacturing.

Oh sorry, maybe we forgot to mention the harmonic bundles associated with wave guidance within the interstitial distances of the rapidly blinking transistors

We need to evolve to adapt to this new threat to the species, and instead of seriously *resisting* its effects on our being, we - the true power - direct the feature to our favour. If, out of the NSA catastrophe, we gain a "New Internet" wherein *everything, everywhere* for 15 years, was available to everyone, then we'd have indeed a new era in the human species. A truly evolutionary step, made by mistake - perhaps.
The problem is OEMs have no incentive to put money into handsets they sold two years ago.
The OEMs should be profiting from their own app stores
I suppose its because of the draconian US laws about content delivery over telephone networks, in the end, though

-- Hey, he can keep his blackberry, but only use it in the Oval office.

Hey, come to think of it, he's the President now. Why doesn't he just get someone to **make** him the perfect wirehead rig, eh
.. this will be my *last* MacBook.
I wish someone else from the 90's would make laptops as cool as Apple though
