What to wear to a video conference?

In my daily quest to convert mere phone users to video callers, I often get the same rookie push-back: Video sounds cool but then I would have get dressed for my conference calls. Not so. Yes, you should wear something but just because someone can see your face, does not mean you need to be in a suit. Besides, video (at the desktop at least) is built for home office folks. And we don't have dress codes, as my clients remind me every time I forget to shave. Maybe a mirror next to screen would not be a bad idea...

SightSpeed - evangelists themselves - recently published a Top Ten of how to prepare for the video world, from the equipment you need through to what you should wear. Yet another push for those of you not yet being seen over the Internet.

As for me, well I converted two new video users in the last month. And they are officially addicts.
