I need to know three things and wondered if anyone could help me.

1. What is the best application to do video chat cross-platform? The person I want to talk to uses windows, and I run ubuntu.

2. What is a good webcam with good linux support?

3. How high resolution can be streamed effectively? Below is my net speed.
