Why paying for an expensive webcam when you can use your awesome iPhone for video conference? Better yet, your iPhone webcam is wireless! Now you can use your iPhone to show around your house/apartment on your favorite instance messenger applications such as Windows Live or Skype.

PocketCam lets you use your iPhone as a wireless webcam for your Windows-based computer or Mac (OS X 10.4 or above). PocketCam automatically forwards video captured by your iPhone camera, which can then be used as if they come from a virtual webcam.

PocketCam works with any Windows-based webcam or video conferencing applications, including instant message applications such as MSN LIve Messenger, Skype, AIM, etc. For Mac users, PocketCam works with any Mac applications that use QuickTime for video capturing, including GTalk, Skype and aMSN.

You can even record the live video from your iPhone cam using a webcam recorder such as QuickTime Pro.
