The Sky's the Limit with Skype

I'm turned on with Skype and you should be too!

What is Skype? A free service allowing users around the world to make calls, video or phone, over the internet. It's really neat. I've had video calls with friends in Italy on a few occasions. If you haven't heard of Skype, then you are really missing out! Skype requires a camera and microphone for your computer. Although many computers are already equipped with a camera and microphone, mine was not. I purchased a relatively inexpensive camera with built-in microphone for $79 and it works great.
The instructions to download Skype are very simple. When the download is complete, you can find friends, relatives and business associates already on Skype by the using the email addresses in your Contacts. You will be amazed by how many of your acquaintances are already using Skype. Another great feature is Skype alerts you when one of your contacts has logged on. Skype is a must for those who want face-to-face conversation with contacts in the U.S. as well as foreign countries. http://www.skype.com/
