Skype Tutorial for Online Audio and Video Communication

Did you know that you can communicate via the web (and Skype) video, chat and/or audio for free? The nominal cost of a camera is the only expense, if you want to see each other. A free download will also make it possible for 11 people to "Skype" with each other at the same time as will the download of free "whiteboard technology" allow for sharing of materials.
See the Skype tutorial here and happy communicating! http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ddj793tf_9025j3zc2
