I just recently installed this program that I got from a member here, and I’m looking to talk with other members as well. I have talked with a few members and I always seem to miss when there on. My fault for not having it active when my computer is first turned on. Sorry guys it’s fixed now. For those who are new to this program, like me, it’s all free. It’s a great on-line phone like service, you get to talk with each other through your computer using a mic which can be bought anywhere, I got mine for $11.00 at Walmart. It’s a simple download that’s take up little space. Did I mention it’s free!

My name and contact is......mother5995

sounds like the Yahoo messenger thing without the option to type or send files to each other. I used yahoo, but finally unistalled it as nobody was ever online.

I use both skype and yahoo. I like the voice quality of Skype better than yahoo, but yahoo has a webcam capability so sometimes I use both sumultaneously. BTW, my yahoo and skype user ID is "aarbolado".

Whenever I turn on my PC and DSL connection, my yahoo is always on-line....hmmm...I better sign-in also in skype incase someone who is not doing anything would like to chat

Cheers

I'm sorry, Max - sometimes I see you,but I don't know if it is really you or not, by that I mean I have seen other people on-line in the past and thought it was them and turned out to be a sibling or child! DOH! :-)

Are all these handles I'm seeing for Yahoo or Skype?

David

We have had a few messenger "chats" in the past, but how do you find this system with our overseas brethren?

I used to visit the chat room and nobody would be there - so I assumed that the time differences meant there was little to no chance of talking directly to them.

Just curious as I wouldn't mind getting in and talking to other modellors.

Oh yeah, if you see me on don’t hesitate to give me a call. Most chances are I’m doing nothing.
