Skype is up and running

So for the last few weeks I have talked up the wonder that is Skype. Skype is a program which acts as an Instant Messaging program, but for your voice. Essentially, it turns your computer into a phone, with the sound speakers acting as the earpiece, and a microphone acting as the mouthpiece of the phone. It is free to download, install, and use. You can get set up with it at http://www.skype.com. If you need detailed instructions on how to set it up, you may check out the instructions I have posted. If these are not clear, or you have problems, please let me know.

My Skype user name is zeneye1129.

You will probably need a high-speed internet connection, as the quality of communication over a dial-up modem line is going to be pretty poor. At the very lease, you will, naturally, need a sound card, speakers (or headphones) and a microphone.

Hope to talk to you soon.

Despite my plans to get a cell phone today, I instead lazed and lounged around the apartment all day, so I am still phone-less. But, like I said, Skype is free. Hook it up!
