Ever wanted to record a song from the internet but just didn't have the right tool? Audio Hijack Pro can do that for you. Even better it can record literally any sound from any application or piece of hardware connected to your Mac.

Every piece of audio you grab is saved in the recording bin list. You'll find that Audio Hijack Pro has a quick record function and also lists preset recordings for specific applications like Safari, Skype, iTunes or iChat. It's very easy to add new ones and this really automates the recording process.

You can schedule automatic recording at precise days and hours of the week for each application. Audio Hijack Pro also lets you enter metadata, although it all has to be done manually (I didn't see an import feature), which is a little tedious.

There really is a wide selection of effects to choose from, 60 in all, and you can add more. I did find the process of inserting effects a little confusing, and you really need to connect them correctly to get what you are looking for.

Audio Hijack Pro comes with some preset formats to save your audio. You can create your own but I found Audio Hijack does not let you save them for future use.

Overall though, Audio Hijack Pro lets you record and enhance sounds from any application really quickly.

I've never been a particularly big fan of Yahoo! products and so I tested Yahoo! Messenger with more than a little trepidation.

Whenever a product is specifically designed for Windows users and is then finally rolled out for Mac, the results can be less then impressive - and so it seems with Yahoo! Messenger. First the good points. The interface is fine. There's nothing that makes it stand out from other Instant Messenger interfaces but it's clean and not cluttered with ads or banners. My main problem is that I have hardly any Yahoo! contacts but fortunately, this latest version finally adds support for MSN contacts.

To add an MSN contact, you have to CMD-click on the main interface and select 'Add new contact'. I thought this could have been made clearer and it only allows the adding of contacts one-by-one - not entire accounts, which is a real pain if you've got lots of contacts. You can also add LCS and Lotus Sametime contacts, although who on Earth uses those nowadays I have no idea.

Overall, using Yahoo! Messenger is a frustrating experience. For instance, I was pleased to read it apparently iSight support (unlike the basic version of MSN Messenger for Mac) but to my dismay, it simply doesn't work. There's also a possibility to phone people as with Skype by purchasing Phone Out credit but I really don't see the point of this unless the rates and plans are more competitive than Skype, which they're not.

Yahoo! Messenger will only really appeal to Yahoo! die-hards that have a Yahoo! account and haven't yet discovered the pleasures of Adium.

Nimbuzz is a free application that connects you with the most popular messenger services on the web.

Nimbuzz can log you in directly to MSN, ICQ or Yahoo! and allows you to chat, send files to other users or start conferencing with friends. Social networks like Facebook , MySpace or Twitter are also supported by the client .

After installing Nimbuzz, you need to create a new account or log onto a pre-existing one. With the help of the setup wizard, your login information for service providers such as Skype, Google Talk, MSN, ICQ, Jabber orAIM. You'll quickly be notified whether your login has been successful or not.

Nimbuzz imports contacts from the respective messenger services. You can then send messages, photos or files to one or more friends through the Nimbuzz menu as well as make phone calls. However, this feature is one of the most unreliable, and you may find it difficult to establish a connection.

Nimbuzz is an interesting free chat client for Mac but is still a little rough around the edges.

Every now and then you need clean your Mac and get rid of cookies, logs or history. It'll ensure that your Mac isn't clogged with obsolete files and runs smoothly.

Mac Cleanse is a shareware program mainly focused on cleaning internet applications, like browsers. It provides a list of the applications you can clean, and clicking on a a name will open up a drop down menu of the elements you can check for deletion, such as cookies, downloads, or recent searches. The right side of the interface features an information panel with a description for the selected application, something which isn't really necessary.

We were a little confused by the way Mac Cleanse worked. The + and - buttons on the left won't let you add more applications to the cleanse list. Instead these let you create or remove custom selections of the applications in the list. The 'cleanse' button isn't very apparent either. You'll find it on the bottom right of the interface.

The good thing about Mac Cleanse though is that it lets you select and clean multiple applications quickly and safely, saving you lots of time.

Despite the slightly counterintuitive interface, Mac Cleanse is efficient at cleaning up multiple internet applications at once.

FaceTime, the excellent video calling application originally introduced for the iPhone 4, is Apple's answer to Skype. It allows you to keep in touch with friends and family on Apple devices via video chats. Open Facetime and you'll immediately see yourself on screen and you must sign in with your Apple account to get started. Once done, FaceTime will sync with your address book, allowing you to immediately call anyone with an iOS device.

Stable, high quality video calling from Mac to iOS devices

Calling an iPad or iPhone is easy, once your contacts are added via your Apple ID. Image quality is excellent, and the display is pleasantly free of distractions. If the iPhone is rotated, the image also changes on FaceTime for Mac, from landscape to portrait and back. All round, it's a very smooth, simple and comfortable video call experience. Although much will depend on your internet connection, the quality of calling on Facetime is generally better than Skype.

FaceTime is not perfect though. While integration with your contacts on the iPhone makes perfect sense, on the Mac it's less useful and some users may find contacts get duplicated or confused on their Mac. This is complicated by the fact that you can't add contacts to FaceTime directly, but have to do it via Address Book so if you don't use Address Book, you'll have to start. It would also be nice to have FaceTime open without constantly seeing video of yourself!

The best way of keeping in touch for Apple devices

FaceTime is an excellent chat application that's certainly the best option for communication between your Mac and friends or family using Apple devices.

Viber has been available on mobile devices for a few years now but finally a desktop client has been released for Windows and Mac.

Interesting alternative to Skype and Messages

The desktop version of Viber is an interesting competitor to Skype and Messages for Mac. Millions already use Viber to chat and make video call on mobile but until now it wasn't possible to use Viber from your desktop. Although it doesn't offer all the functionality of the mobile versions, it's still a very worthy alternative.

Rock-solid syncing with mobile devices

The developer of Viber for Mac is keen to highlight that it has superior mobile syncing than competitor products. Viber does a good job of making sure that wherever you left off on your mobile device, your chats can be picked up. Contacts are also synced, although some users already report some problems with this. You can make calls and video chats with other Macs but you can't yet make video calls to mobile devices or do video conferencing using Viber for Mac.

Slick, easy to use interface

The interface is very elegant and easy to use. Anyone who has used Skype or Messages will have no problems using Viber. You'll need to sign-up for a Viber account if you don't have one, which you are prompted to do when you setup the app.

Reliable syncing and good quality video

Viber for Mac generally syncs very reliably and efficiently and the quality of video-to-video on Mac is as good as anything Skype can offer. However, some users have already reported problems with syncing and the lack of ability to call mobiles is a bit disappointing.

A solid IM and VoIP client

Viber for Mac is a solid IM and VoIP client that's worth trying for anyone that's had enough of Skype and Messages.

Skype long ago became the market leader for calling friends, family and colleagues over the net. Most recently, it was taken over by Microsoft and the latest release see it advance with video conferencing for several participants, an improved contacts list, Facebook integration and many more additional features.

With Skype you can call other Skype users absolutely free wherever they are in the world thanks to P2P technology. Skype brings together the main functions of talk, chat, video, file sharing and screen sharing in one main window. In the latest release, by default your contacts list is on the left with the other basic functions in the main part of the program window making it more streamlined and slicker than previous releases.

New in Skype 5 is the ability to video conference with up to ten participants. Group conferencing has also been made easier thanks to the redesigned call window which means that all distractions (such as other conversations) are minimized and only the names of participants displayed. However, although you can video chat with one contact for free, group video conferencing is now a premium feature which you have to pay for,

Skype features a new contacts list sorted by category and you can add favorites to the top of the list. Searching for them has also been made easier by integrating them with your Mac address book. You can also now rename contacts so that you're not stuck with their default username. Finally, accessing Skype is now easier thanks to a mini Skype control bar that sits on top of any web pages, documents or photos you've got open although some may find this a bit intrusive.

Although the latest Skype adds many improvements, some people may miss the smaller and more discreet interface of Skype 2.8. There is a feeling that the developers have gone a bit over the top in expanding Skype and "hiding" certain features and it will take users of the old version some getting used to. The fact that video conferencing is now a premium feature will also annoy many faithful users.

Finally, most recently Skype was taken over by Microsoft which has led to further integration with Microsoft services among other things. You can now sign into Skype with your Microsoft Live account details for example and chat to MSN contacts online using Skype. There's also been considerable integration with Facebook allowing you to chat and communicate with Facebook contacts from Skype.

The new Skype brings video conferencing and a more intelligent user interface that once you've adapted to, should make Skype an even better way to keep in touch while you're away. However, those that don't like the interface changes will be less than impressed and can still download version 2.8.

Skype is one of the most popular apps for communicating with friends and family. With support for video calls, VOiP calls, and instant messages, it's possible to replace your land line phone.

Skype features

Using Skype to communicate is easy because it's a cross-platform app with support on smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers.

The main function of Skype is video calls which allow for single and group video conferencing. 

You can also call land line and cell phone numbers worldwide at a lower cost per minute which is deducted from your Skype balance.

As the successor to Windows Messenger, Skype also lets you chat with friends on Facebook.

Using Skype

It's not difficult to use Skype if you only use the basic features.

Calling another Skype user is simple and making calls to land lines isn't difficult either, but problems emerge when you want to use advanced features. 

Some features are hidden behind menus and some buttons don't explain the feature it activates, like screen sharing. It takes some time to learn all of the advanced functions in Skype.

Covers all the bases

Skype has become one of the standards for calling through the internet and has features that everyone can find useful.

The app can intelligently adapt to different desktops or devices and adjust for network speeds without having to manually change your settings. 

There are many variables to get good video and sound, and Skype is able to get the best possible quality available.

An essential program

The varied uses of Skype make it a very important program to use. Since it's cross-platform, you don't have to worry about compatibility with other users. 

Since Skype has replaced Messenger, it is the default messaging app for Windows, but it's still a great add-on for Mac users.

Brief history of Skype

Skype emerge from the creators of Kazaa. The technology behind the P2P program is what Skype ran to enable calls between computers.

Video calls wouldn't emergy until two years later along with different functions that were eventually discontinued like Skypecast and SkypeFind.

Skype has been owned by various companies with the most recent in 2011 when Microsoft bought the company and integrated it into Windows as a replacement for Messenger.
