For no good reason, I had put off trying Skype. Skype is a free voice-over-IP (VOIP) service that allows you to place audio or video calls over the internet from just about any computer. I'm not new to video chatting, in the past I've used AIM to video chat with friends and family. But most platforms that I had tried in the past usually had some issues. Well, I've been hammering Skype for the last couple of weeks and I'll have to say that I'm very impressed. Very good audio, excellent video, and it's extremely easy to setup. I'm currently on the road in Pennsylvania, and I've made some video calls to Guam and Korea from the free wifi in my hotel room and the calls have been excellent.
So if you're using Skype, add me to your contact list. I have two accounts: randman_rjr and randman_mobile.
If you're not using Skype, download it now!
