Just a quick thought and a plug for one of Bill Gates programs

 

I now speak to my brother and the family over the Internet, I have installed MSN  Mesenger which comes with Windows XP or you could download it both cost nothing.

 

Bye bye big phone bills

 

You could chat to others over the Internet (like Becker United members) with MSN Messenger and you don’t need to have a MSN Email address .

 

http://messenger.msn.com/Xp/Default.aspx is a link to the official XP site for it

If you have a webcam and a microphone you can talk to others as I do with my brother in the USA . Webcams are relatively cheap or if you have a  TV card and a Video Camera you get a better picture,

 

IF YOU HAVE THEM  then why not DOWNLOAD IT AND USE IT

Register with MSN Messenger

  • If you have a Hotmail or MSN e-mail address, go straight to step 2.
  • If you do not have a Hotmail or MSN e-mail address, you need to sign up for a Microsoft .NET Passport with your current e-mail address, or sign up for a free Hotmail account.

Sign in

Before you can use MSN Messenger, you must sign in.

  • Double-click the MSN Messenger icon at the bottom of your screen.
  • Enter the e-mail address and password that you registered with Passport.

Add friends and family to your contact list

Now that you've got MSN Messenger, you can connect to your friends and family who are online.

  • Click Add a Contact.
