Motvik, a Bangalore based startup, has launched public beta of their software WWIGO (Webcam Wherever I GO), that turns your mobile phone camera into a wireless Webcam. All you need to do is download and install the software on your PC/laptop. The software supports Yahoo Messenger, Skype and Windows Live messenger and you can also upload live video on Youtube. Currently, software supports only Symbian phones and Windows PC/laptop. I have to wait to test it because I posses a Sony Ericsson mobile phone :(
