1. Can more than two parties Skype at the same time?
2. Now that I have a Google account what blogs can I get into?

  1. hi Deborah,
    Yes you can skype to more than one person at a time. You can select more than one from your contact list and then click Call.

    As for blogs, the Google account allows you to create a blog or create posts in blogs that you have been invited into. The rules for commenting in blogs is set by the blog owner - anyone, google users only, invitees only, no one.
    Hope that helps

  2. Hi Deborah,
    Just to add to Diane's comment, the maximum number of people in a Skype call is 9 with audio, don't try using video with that many. Also you can have numerous people in Skype chat, I do not believe there is a limit to the number in a chat.

  3. Deborah,

    When "Skyping" at your school, make sure to take bandwidth concerns into mind. The less load your school puts on your Internet connection, the better the Skype session (ie. it won't look delayed).
