Skype is an amazing tool!

If you have friends or family far away and the cost of phoning them is getting too much, why not connect via Skype?

Skype uses your broadband connection to connect to landlines, mobile phones and other computers.

If the person you want to call also has a broadband connection then you can connect for free. All you need is a microphone and headphones and you can talk and/or online chat for as long as you like. If you both have a webcam it’s even more fun because you can see the other person talking. What a great way to connect with grandkids far away!

But that’s not all. For very low rates you can connect with landlines and mobile phones and even send text messages. Or, if you’re not online, you can get your Skype calls forwarded to another phone.

If you use the paid services you can do this either by pay-as-you-go, which means you only pay when you use the service, or a monthly subscription. Either way, the service is amazing value compared to conventional telephony.

There are a lot of options to play around with to get connected with your friends, family or business contacts.  Installing Skype is easy and free. And if you don’t already have headphones, microphone or web camera, then Skype can supply all the compatible equipment you need.

Why not give it a try? It’s great fun and getting set up is a breeze.
