Video and video chatting!

This is a screen shot of the awesome video chat that my husband and I had using google talk! We love google! Also, we love video chatting with our family that lives in Tennessee and Louisiana since we never get to see them. :-( I discovered video chatting when I was in China for the summer and wanted to see my family! It is an amazing way to communicate with people across the world, or even just across the neighborhood! It really breaks boundaries that phone calls can't help, since you can't see body language over a phone. I think you could use it to help with learning about students in another school, state, or even country!

Also, the video is finished and posted below along with the assignment for it! It was fun. We had a few technical difficulties with the air conditioner really interfering with the sound of the video, but we tried to mask it with background music, and it worked okay. It was fun, because I now learned how to change the volume of the audio within a track and also how to slow down or speed up video! Cool!
