TOPIC:

anyone on here use it? free calls and video calls and cheap text messaging. you can speak to anyone in the world for free!

No, I try to avoid adding any extra technology with possesed functionality to the list. I'm a carb & points man, you know where you are without black boxes cocking everything up!

I think the last "new" technology I really embraced was t'internet back in '96 when it was still fairly new ... VOIP I could probably deal with as it's practically "vintage" now ...

I draw the line at all this social networking bannocks though - facenook, twatter & the like

skype isnt a social networking site, its a cheap and easy way of communicating with friends and family, thats all

I've got caller display so I can ignore those calls...
Sold a power over ethernet switch router on't Ebay years back, made 40 quid, not bad for a skip find!
Not into electronic gossip sites either, in fact this is the only social type forum thingy I'm a member of. I like fact & information, not hearing what her next door's been up to with the turkey baster, I've got more important ways to spend my life

i use it

I use it too, mainly at work, and mainly for texting.

Not a skyper myself. Don't think it's complete free here though if I remember well...

Edou, you do have to put credit on to text people on their mobiles but you can call and video call any skype users for free

I use it too
