Hi, (sorry, don't know your name),

it's my first time at this web cam malarkey, I'm a little confused, how does it 
actually work, the destruction manual isn't very good.

from start to finish, how can Gwenie do a web cam with her mum, do they have to 
log on some where first ?

Regards.

Doug.



Hi Doug, For some reason I can't send to PCTecktalk, I'll try this way. I used 
to use the Yahoo messenger http://messenger.yahoo.com/ but I haven't used any 
P2P cam in a long time, I never did have any luck with the Microsoft 
netmeeting. I just have a 5 or 6 buck microphone, and it works fine. I have a 
online cam site but I'm not on it very often http://hdka7.camarades.com/ You 
will love having a cam.
