About Webcamo

Webcamo
 
Webcamo is a service that directly links up to your webcam to get you into intimate contact with other webcam users very quickly. While it has messaging features and some very basic profile information the prime functionality is shared webcam usage and all messaging is likely to lead pretty quickly to a request to “accept a webcam DUO” or “Send a Video”
 
It goes without saying that webcam dating is amongst the more explicit ways of getting to know someone online and you can expect your interactions on webcamo to get fairly steamy, fairly quickly.
 
This could be great, depending of course on who you get chatting to. One concern about webcamo and indeed all very explicit dating sites, is that it may hold more appeal for men than women. Webcamo does not make any claims about its male to female ratios, however, when dating-experts tried it the selection of profiles was dominated by men.
 
Webcamo certainly has speed on its side. With pretty much instant access, in theory you could be chatting to someone - with pictures! - within minutes of your first visit.
 
Overall dating-experts advises caution. Webcamo is not a very well established player in the UK market and it may be safer to pursue your desires through better established companies. For example benaughty caters for a similar customer group and offers similar functionality, yet is much better known within the UK.
 
Webcamo is owned and run by a company called Transmission based in Paris. Indeed the site is much better known in France, so if you want to improve your French in an especially fun way, you could always try their French offering as well: webcamo.
 
If you do decided to give webcamo a go, then one of the first things that you will need to be prepared for is a request by the service to access the webcam on your computer. This can be a little scary, but it seems that this will only be used by webcamo if you request to chat directly with one of the other users, or if you want to record a video to share with other users.
