Go to www.skype.com and download the FREE software that will allow you to call anyone on Skype for free. Then, pick up a web camera with a built in microphone and plug it in. Instant video phone! Skype will let you call anyone on Skype with or without video for FREE. The web cameras cost about $19 and up. But what if you want to call someone outside the Skype network? It's $3 per month to call any number in the USA. That’s right, FREE long distance; call any US number and talk all day if you want. I also talk to my son Jeff in Korea on the video phone through his Skype account. Now our whole family is getting video phones. The system is so easy to use, even our 90 year old grandpa (Pop-Pop) is seen online. He can call any family member and check in with them and see what they are up to. A call to South Dakota and I can see the homework project my niece is working on. See you online!
