So I’ve known about snipes for a long time, but just recently heard about Skype.
Since I now work in a different county from where I live, and don’t have a cell phone, there is no way to communicate with the homestead. We’ve been using MSN when we need to, and although I can chat with the best of them (sometime I need to write an essay about all of the wonderful possibilities that the chat medium affords humor). But hey, chatting is chatting. I can’t talk to the kids. Actually the oldest can type, but it usually consists of him asking for links to movies.
Anyway, I heard about Skype, download it, and in about 45 seconds my wife and I were chatting. It is easy to use, and although you can only talk to somebody else who has Skype (unless you want to pay), it’s a wonderful, wonderful thing.
So, if anybody else out there wants to get it, throw me on your list of buddies and Skype me anytime you want.
