@1990babyface I have never used Ustream so I can't help you with that. If you have a webcam then you can talk face to face with whoever you are calling if both of you have Skype. All you do is follow the steps outlined in my video for downloading the program and then send you friend an invitation to connect. Just place a video call and that's it. Hope that helped.
@1990babyface Once you have installed the program and are connected to your friend, you will click on their Skype ID. You will be given a choice to make a regular call or a video call. The regular call is you 2 just talking to each other over the internet. The video call will activate your webcam and you 2 will be able to see each other as you talk.
@1990babyface ALL calls are free IF you both are using Skype. Skype is FREE and all you do is download it. You can chat with anyone in any part of the world as long as you both are using Skype. It's really that simple.
@1990babyface You are so welcome. I'm sure you'll find it a pretty easy program to use but please feel free to ask me more questions if you run into any problems. Have fun chatting.
@AdrienneSmith40 I got another question. So if I'm new to Skype & I dont have any friends on Skype, Can I like invite them to talk to me or what or how can do that? Can I seach for friends on there? How do I know if they're real people on Skype & they're not pretending to be someone else like a perverb or predator for example?
@1990babyface When you chat with your friends, let them know you are on Skype and give them your Skype ID. People may randomly invite you to be their friends on Skype and you can accept their friendship or not. If you accept someone's friendship and they start sending you inappropriate information you can just block them from contacting you again. You also have instant messenger capabilities and people may send you advertisements. Just block their account. It's that easy.
@1990babyface I tried to respond to this all day yesterday but it just wouldn't go through. Sorry for the delay. Yes, you can search for people on Skype. I suggest to going to their website and reading all about what this service offers. They explain it very well.
@1990babyface If I'm not mistaken, you can still IM them or call them even if they haven't accepted your friendship. For the individual, it just makes it easier to be able to have a list of people they call often. You might want to check that out on their site to be sure.
@1990babyface IM means instant messenger. Once you bring up your Skype, you will see a blank space on the bottom left side. You can instant messenger any of your friends instead of calling them. Same as AOL or Yahoo instant messenger.
You can call them even if they aren't logged on and it will show you as a missed call on their end.
@1990babyface You can change the status of your profile to available, offline, invisible, etc. It's up to the individual to set their own status. You will not be notified if they check their messages. Just like you sent a message to someone on YouTube. You have NO idea if they read it or not.
@AdrienneSmith40 I believe I sent that person an IM Message 4 days ago when I wanted them to be my friend & I still havent heard back from that person yet. But I see their user name on my contact list already.
@AdrienneSmith40 So what else can I do on Skype that's free with my friends? Can I call on 3-Way? Have like 3 people including me talk all at the same time?
@1990babyface You need to go to their site to read about all their features. I don't believe they have 3 way calling but I'm not positive. That's not a service that I use or need.
@1990babyface We have your abilities to screen share and video call a friend for free. "Three way" is not on Skype. Making a group and calling that group up to ten people is basically better than three way. Make sure to have a good connection because the more people that are in the group, the much more harder your processor will work. You can also send files to each other for free.
@1990babyface You don't send friend requests on Twitter, you just follow them. You also can't send them a direct message unless they are following you back. You can do the @ symbol and then their username and send them a tweet. They will see that you sent them a personal message. That's how Twitter works. If you need to learn more, check out my free training site where I teach you everything. Send me a message if you'd like that link.
@pmknight12 Absolutely not. If you have internet connection, you just download Skype and connect with others who also have Skype. You can call them directly from your computer or you can instant messenger them. Whichever preference you choose.
thanks so much this helped alot at first when i got skype i could not figur it out and thanks again

Not to be offensive, but if this video was supposedly quick, then why is it four minutes long?
