Beyond the Video

There’s more to Skype than the average person might know. Most people think Skype is only for video calling, but there are tons of things you can do. First off there’s chatting which is a way to talk to others through instant messaging. Its great because if you don’t have time for a long conversation, you can just type in what you want to say. You can also send files such as pictures, videos, Mp3 downloads, etc. This is easier than sending an email, and a lot faster. You can also play different games by yourself or with people from your contact list. You can even personalize you Skype page. You can create an avatar that you can have depicted as your picture for your friends to see. You can also let others know how you are feeling by posting a video, mood or short sentence or two as your own personal tag line to share with your friends. By personalizing your page, you can let your imagination run wild with amazing ideas. Also, a small fee, you can call other mobile numbers. It’s a great way to stay in touch with people no matter where you are even if you don’t have a cell phone. Skype has a lot to offer to various people and personalities. I advise everyone to go out and explore all the capabilities Skype has to offer.
