I remember the days when Matt and I used to video and voice chat through Yahoo Messenger and I remember it being miserable. Not only because we were miles apart, but the quality and delay were horrible! It wasn't even worth trying. After trying Skype for the first time last night, I can definitely see the technology's improvement over the past seven years.Our family in Colorado (Matt's parents) finally decided to make an a few upgrades and bought new computers, DSL, and a webcam, so we decided to try Skype, a free internet video calling program. We were amazed at the quality of both the video and the audio! It was a wonderful treat to be able to see and hear each other and will definitely help bridge the gap between us and cut back on cellphone minutes and long-distance calls. An added bonus is that they can see Robby, which we plan on doing tonight since he was already in bed when we got everything set up last night. We're all really looking forward to it! It was super easy to use and definitely worth it!
