Skype!

I've just heard about a new thing called Skype! I don't know how to pronounce it. Some people say it rhymes with 'hype'. And others say it rhymes with 'pee'. I don't know. The only thing I do know is that it helps me a lot with my work. Last week, while I was undergoing my induction course, in the evenings, I would receive conference calls via Skype. And it's free! So, there I was, wearing the headphones with the mic, and talking away to a someone in Singapore. And the connection is clear, with no static whatsoever.

So today, I took Skype one step further. I bought some air time, in order for me to dial other numbers via Skype. And it works. It really does work. And I am satisfied. Now I can call anywhere, anytime, via my computer. Isn't that sweet. I know VoIP is an old thing. But I'm still excited about it. And I think you ought to think about it too.
