Something that I've never had or used before is a web cam. Fortunately, the new laptop I bought comes with a web cam, and I've recently been taking advantage of it. First thing I did was get Skype and Stickam accounts, as I never got to take advantage of those until now. With my Stickam account, I have the opportunity to get on G4TV's "Attack of the Show" or "X-Play's" Virtual Audience, and that's something I'd like to do sometime in the near future. Honestly though, I haven't taken advantage of Stickam just yet. I have however taken full advantage of my Skype account, with the most use being that I'm starting to use that to call my wife at work. Now instead of just talking on the phone, we can actually see each other through the web cam. Skype can easily be a good alternative to talk to people all over the world, and I highly recommend it to those who haven't tried it yet.
