Skype is Good


I have been having a great time using Skype -- it is a form of VoIP and can be used free anywhere in the world between those who have dowloaded the software (and have a good internet connection).

A sailing/windsurfing friend from Portugal tracked me down recently via Skype and we have renewed our friendship after 5 years without contact. If you have a Mac with built-in microphone, you'll only need a set of earphones (to avoid feedback); if you have a PC, you may need a USB headset. Link to Skype for further info.

Sailing links from my friend Ze, the Dragon sailor from Cascais:
