There's gotta be a way! I love having that little built-in webcam on my N800, but I hate not really having any way to use it!

Search around you'll find a few things...

aMSN works to stream video (albeit slow) to MSN Messenger clients.

SIP video via h.263/h.263+ works with PC clients that support that codec.

Gizmo video works to the Gizmo PC 4.0 beta client.

"motion" lets you stream via mjpeg/http or still frames.

Jabber/XMPP/GTalk video is done via jingle-video so technically it would work with a PC *if* someone could find PC client software with support.
