On the
other day, I installed Skype on my computer. It is a special program that
people can use to communicate with each other on technology. I have a username
account that says alexmasonfitzgerald@gmail.com. In order to get Skype to
work, you must first add a person’s email address, then get his or her account
with a user name. Once you add a
person, their picture will automatically show up if they added one to their account.
You need a camera to make this
program work and have the windows open. Also, you must have sound quality so you can speak with a
microphone in order for a person to understand your voice and your speech if he
or she couldn’t hear well. When you skype with me, you have to speak clearly
and listen to what I say. I also have Facetime besides this program. So when
you use Facetime, you must know
the person’s email address or phone number and use it on your Ipad, iphone, or
your computer if you don’t have a camera for Skype. My contact information for
Facetime is Alexander.fitzgerald@yahoo.com.
I enjoy video chatting with my family and friends, and it’s fun to join in with
friends! Your software must be
connected to each other so they
will know who to skype or facetime. These programs are required to chatting with people who want
to join in with others who live far away or can’t come to their houses. For
example, I don’t use phone calls so I would use video-chatting calls on my
computer or Ipad so I could talk to people, ask them questions, and show them the things I had done in my life. Here are the
rules that are important to how you use video-chatting programs…
1.
Put
your head back so you can see each others faces.
2.
Pay
attention to what a person is trying to do or say.
3.
Don’t
turn the program off without saying goodbye.
4.
Have
fun!
5.
Be
nice and ask questions and tell them some things you like to do.
