Diana:
It is my impression that wizards who fancy a chat can just use floo 
power and stick their head in their fireplace like Amos did when 
talking to Arthur in GoF, Sirius did when talking to Harry in GoF and 
OotP, and Harry did when talking to Sirius and Lupin in OotP.  For 
wizards without a fireplace, I would guess they could send an owl 
inviting the other wizard to pop over for a chat.  I would doubt that 
there are lots of two-way mirrors in the WW just because it would seem 
to fall under muggle objects that had been charmed....
