It\'s a program where you basically talk to another person who has skype for free using live video.......

You can alos buy vouchers and speak to people through their normal telephone line. I use skype.

It\'s good no delays in picture or sound.

Do I need special software and microphones?

 

[james sequeira]

its really good i had a quick chat with chern ann yesterday

 

[Infidel Castro]

So a mic is needed. Right. Could be a laugh! Might well pick one up

 

[minimaker]

Yup, mic and headphone or speakers. We use it at work actually. It\'s also possible to do conference calls, so it\'s possible to have a miniatures skype meet. The only thing is that it requires windows 2000 or XP so I can\'t use it at home at the moment.
