Now, by downloading free Camfrog software, users can sign to each other through the live video link between their computers, just like communicating in person.<\/p>\n<p>Users can choose to sign with one person at a time in complete privacy or they can join a public video chat room to join group discussions in sign language.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When we created Camfrog, we didn&#8217;t consider how useful the program would be for people who use sign language,&#8221; said Camfrog co-founder Jon Hundley. &#8220;As more deaf and hard-of-hearing users joined the Camfrog community, we were impressed with how they adapted the program for signing, and how useful it has become for them. There&#8217;s even a sign now for Camfrog that one of our users created!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Camfrog users can make their own chat rooms or join existing audio and video chat rooms hosted around the world. Users can post a profile, block unwanted members, and have multiple simultaneous chats. Those who create their own chat rooms can remove anyone using inappropriate language. The most popular room for signing on Camfrog is the appropriately named SignLanguage room.<\/p>\n<p>The basic version of Camfrog is free. A premium version, Camfrog Pro, which lets users view up to 100 video windows at once, costs $49.95.<\/p>\n<p>To download Camfrog, visit http:\/\/www.camfrog.com\/. <\/p>\n<p>About Camfrog <\/p>\n<p>Camfrog (http:\/\/www.camfrog.com\/), launched in 2003, is a free software program that allows live audio and video conferencing. Users can view photos and profiles of other members, keep a &#8220;friends&#8221; list to see who is online, and conduct video, audio and text chats with individual or multiple users at once. The Pro version includes additional features. Camfrog works with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Apple MacOS X. <\/p>\n<p>Website: http:\/\/www.camfrog.com\/<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br \/>\nYou are subscribed to the following list:<br \/>\n\tDeaf Network of Texas<\/p>\n<p>using the following email:<br \/>\n\tblog@deafnetwork.com<\/p>\n<p>You may automatically unsubscribe from this list at any time by<br \/>\nvisiting the following URL:<\/p>\n<p><http :\/\/www.deafnetwork.com\/cgi-bin\/dada\/mail.cgi\/u\/dn\/><\/p>\n<p>BETTER IP RELAY &#8211; EVERYWHERE! i711.com makes all your relay calls better.
