Skype: FREE software to make phonecalls...anywhere.

Post by acman319 »

Hey everyone! Has anyone heard about the free software Skype? I love it. You can call other members for free! Anywhere in the world! You can search their member database to find members anywhere in the world. This service could be helpful in your genealogical research. You can search for members by last name or full name. I typed in my last name and other family names, and I may have found some relatives of mine in Italy. I think this is a great software. You should try it out. It can hurt, it's free. Make sure you have a microphone though on your computer. If you have a webcam, you could even use that if you wanted to. What do you guys think?
Ciao!

I have friends who have used this and they think its great. I've never tried it but I think it may be worth a shot.

Maybe you could provide a link to the site?

I purchased credits on Skype and used some but a few days ago had an email from them to say that my credits had now run out of time and I had nearly £5. worth still on it!
