Skype video chat is used for communication, conversation between people (1st level contact), but what I had in mind was a constant stream of whats going on in another place. I know its already in use as webcams showing town centers, shopping malls interiors, but they all show masses of anonymous people (3rd level contact). I see it rather like 2nd level contact where people are recognizable but not being spyied because this is a 2way transmission (cameras and displays are on both ends). This could be easily applicable for the virtual worlds where you can see and communicate with other places without necesity to teleport.
hope I was clear since Im typing it in a rush:)
