Have had a web cam for a couple years. I use it primarily with Skype to chat with family and friends. My son has one in his lap top and he was able to show me all of his new home by just walking thru it with his computer - awesome!

We have one to talk with my DGS in Michigan (I'm in PA). We couldn't get Skype to work, so we use ooVoo, and have no problem with it. I love being able to talk with my grandson and be able to see him while I talk.

We love it for seeing the Grandchildren far away from home. It's so clear, and the voice is also. I remember years ago before cable. But, it's not like that anymore. We plan on using it more often this Summer during our RV trip to Alaska.

I use mine everyday to talk with my family in the US. I have one that simply clips to the top of my laptop and I can take it off to pan around the room if I like that way. I use Skype which means that the calls are all free! That becomes very important if you use it very often. The downside is that it can drop the line often, but it only takes a moment usually to reconnect. Its worth it for the freedom to chat and see the person, or people you are chatting with. I dont think that my life would be quite the same without t!

I have a built-in with my laptop. My family are all about 1500 miles away, so we use it a lot to talk with the kids and grandkids. I love it!!!

I have a web cam that we used a lot while my youngest son was living in Prague, and then Germany. He was able to take his laptop around and show us their apartment and even the view outside the window. It was great because it was a year and a half before we got to see him in person again.
I was very grateful to use it and skype and stay in touch. I could tell when he had gained weight or lost it and it helped ease the lonesomeness. He recently came back to the states. |
I bought one for my husband for Christmas....all his family are in Sicily so we use Skype, it's great being able to see someone while you chat....and free too.
