Jetbook & Libre users with skype?

GhostHawk · 09-23-2010, 07:35 AM

Talked Russell into trying Skype last night as he was having some technical difficulty's. Computer to computer Skype is free, you can download, install, choose a name without it costing you a dime.

And it comes with a pretty neat set of functions, including the ability to share your screen with the person your talking to. So he was able to watch as I did something. Then I was able to watch as he tried it.

Makes long distance tech support much much easier. Also being able to send someone a file, the URL of a web page, etc. Well its just handy.

If anyone is interested in hooking up do a search for Ghosth332

I'll let Russell decide if he wants to be found or not.

Bill, my skype program began automatically when I booted my computer this morning. If it happens next time, I'll delete it and download it again.

Russell, there should be a box to uncheck in setup to not have it start when windows starts.

Tools, Options, general settings.
"Start Skype when I start Windows"

Bill, I didn't find that, but I did find a surprise listing for my home page, so I deleted that.
