I win at the Internets!

I just got off the phone with my boss and his wife. They are in Australia, I'm in Canada, and the call was free and very high quality! This Skype thing is good, eh?

You need a computer with a microphone (check! all apple laptops have one) and speakers (check! again with the goodness of an apple laptop). There was a feedback problem, until I switched over to headphones from the speakers, but otherwise all was good.

If I was a long distance telephone company, I'd be worried.

I'll see what I can do. I might have you come over and see if there actually is a microphone in this thing. Computo's a bit of a backwards Computer Tyrant from Planet Colu.

caroline:

I have skype!

ben:

Skype sounds like some sort of medieval bowel dysfunction, by the way.

"Arrr! Beware of him, he is surely afflicted by the skype..."

Chris:

Yes, and skype be spread'n quickly. Drop yer stocks in any long-distance companys, they be dinosaurs these days.
