An Introduction To Skype

Skype is a a program that allows you to contact people in different ways. You can send other skype users text messages, or can call them as well. A very useful function of the program is that you can engage in group calls. For more advanced capabilities, such as calling a real phone number, you must pay, but the program offers a lot of features for free. The program allows you to set up teleconferences which cna be used for business or pleasure. An example of how useful these could be is that when you do group work, say for a school assignment, instead of having to meet at someones house, you can call each other through skype and talk about the details of the work.
