Skype...so easy so fun

I have been using skype for a while now. I use it to keep in contact with my family in Kansas, and now with a baby on the way they can see him as he grows just as if he is right there with them. I have tried other web cam programs and I find skype to be the best so far. Others I have used are not as interactive and seem to freeze up constantly. As an educator I see this as a very useful tool. It would come in handy when trying to explain assignments or if the students need extra help outside of the classroom.

I love this web tool! It is simple to use and manipulate. What I especially like is that I can edit the content of some videos and make them work for my classroom. So often I come across a video that I would love to use in a classroom but some of the content may be inappropriate. With this tool I can edit out those parts and make it work the way I need it to.
