Don’t have a webcam, but need to make an urgent video call on Skype or some other video conferencing service?

Many people have one camera on their laptops but need a second camera for some specific project.

Not all desktops and laptops have cameras and in this day and age of Skype video calls, the need for video conferencing is felt even by our grandparents who want to see their sons and daughters. Though you many not need it daily but suppose there is this presentation which you need to explain to your boss.
