One of the drawbacks I've always seen is that if you want Skype to make video calls with more than one person, it will not be possible, so we always had to resort to other programs.

Skype knows this and has been working on it. By the end of this year, will be available the new version of VoIP-based program, whose improvements will find multiple video call with a maximum of five users.

Even if you do not want to wait, as they say, the beta is now available for download, yes, only for Windows users. For Mac users can not prove it, but the final version will be available later this year.

To try videoconferencing to 5 other users who attempt to act in the conference, must have installed the beta or not work, of course.
