The Webcam Experience

Yes, that's us on our new webcam...



We also got one for Grandma Ross, so now Edwin can see his out-of-town grandma face-to-face on a regular basis.

If you would like to join the fun and have some profound video web chats with the Rosses of Kentucky, here's what you do:

1. Get a webcam - If your computer didn't come with one, there's plenty of Logitech webcams on Amazon. I think we got ours for less than $40.

2. Get a Gmail account - Although I'm tempted to proselytize to those of you don't use Gmail yet, this is not the forum. This is simply the service we've chosen to use, you can sign up here. You already have our @gmail.com addresses (mindyleeross & davidedwinross), right?

3. Install Gmail's voice and video chat plug-in - It's pretty simple. You can learn all you need to know here.
