Skype

Skype is a wonderful thing. Last night we had a wonderful video chat with several former coworkers who are in various parts of America. This is a screen shot that our friend Syrena took while we were talking and catching up with one another.

From top left, clockwise: Beijing, China -Chicago, Illinois - Los Angeles, California, - Lancaster, Pennsylvania - Brookings, South Dakota - Portland, Oregon.

We were able to talk to all of these people at the same time for free. (Although it does require a trial version of an upgrade which will charge in the future.) When you can do stuff like this, you have to realize that at some point, we stopped living in the present and entered the future.
