VoIP Extra Credit

I enjoyed doing this extra credit assignment as I use Skype to talk to people that I don’t see on an everyday basis. I mostly use Skype to talk with friends and family in New York, my parents in Miami and my Dad when he is traveling overseas. I also spoke frequently to my old college roommate when he was studying abroad in China! I have never before used Jing and found this free software to be quite useful. I liked that I could record conversations and watch them over again or share with others.  It was easy to choose what area of the screen I wanted to record and how to stop the recording. I hope to use this software to record video conferences at business meetings and to chat with friends and family members who live faraway. Before Skype became popular to use, I used a VOIP by the name of oovoo.

Here is a video of my Skype chat with my cousin in Syracuse:
