Skype

Although Skype is best known for video calling between two people, it can also be used for instant messaging/texting, desktop sharing, conference and group video calls. 

Set up Skype with two basic steps:

1. First, create a Skype account on the Skype website (http://www.skype.com).   
2. Then download the Skype program and install it on your computer.

• Contacts can be imported or entered manually (instructional link on right). 
• Calls can be initiated (once contacts are available).
