Skype'd

I am now officially Skyped. A buddy of mine (known since 7th grade!) recently relocated to Dubai with his family. Good friends of ours we have been tracking their adventures through their blog.

However, we finally bought a web cam this week and after downloading Skype we are talking and seeing them live over the internet.

Must admit it was pretty cool! Maybe I can talk my parents into getting a web cam so they can see Gilbert whenever they want!

If you have distance friends or family, Skype is a free method to communicate with them. All you need to do is purchase a web cam. We bought the Logitec 9000 and it took all of five minutes to install.

The only downside to web camming? You can't multitask!
