Google released its Voice and Video chat today, and our own unscientific tests here at New Media Rights and UCAN show that the audio and video quality easily rivals competing services such as Skype. The biggest difference is that this is Google making a move into the voice and video area and it has the potential to alter the playing field a fair amount.

The best way to work with your co-workers online. 

Sometimes voice is just not enough. Imagine if you were to explain the usage of a software application, how do you find explaining that through IM text chat or Skype voice? What if you and your friends/co-workers all want to edit the same file or use the same software application? Gogrok can fill the gap. 

You may share your software/file/desktop with other Gogrok users as long as they are online. It's very easy to use. 

Gogrok works hand in hand with Skype. You may discuss with your friends/co-workers using Skype voice. If you have to show and share something to help understand each other better, launch Gogrok along with Skype to enhance the communication.

UnPlug is an extension which lets you save video and audio which is embedded on a webpage - it's a video download tool.

UnPlug scans web pages and tells you where media players are getting their data from, and displays it as a simple hyperlink: in most cases, you can then follow the simple download link to save the media file.

UnPlug works for lots of sites including youtube.com, ifilm.com, current.tv, revver.com, peekvid.com, video.google.com, mobuzztv.com and lots, lots more.

Unlike many other extensions, UnPlug scans the page, and if it doesn't know there the data comes from it can guess - correctly most of the time.
