Skypeing it up!

Ben recently reminded me to download the free video communication service called Skype. A couple other friends of mine have the some program, so I figured it would be a neat accessory to have. All users from across the globe can connect and talk with decent quality video in real time. My laptop is set up for the video/talk thing with an integrated camera and speaker, so all I had to do was click "download." I love It! It's really neat how I can communicate while seeing the person with only a .16 millisecond lag. I encourage anyone who has an integrated camera and speaker, or anyone with about $10 to go ahead and set up an account. The service is free and it's quite simple to use. Go to Skype.com and the download button is on the home page. once download, all you need to do is set it up by entering a few boxes on information. My Skype name is Volacious for anyone who has Skype or will have it in the future.
