Video not terribly relevant.
Jul. 27th, 2009 07:39 pmI've been getting used to Skype and testing it out for upcoming gaming nights, and I've realized several advantages it holds for me over traditional phones:
1. I don't have to worry about losing it or forgetting to charge up a separate device.
2. It feels more like using a computer (which I'm comfortable with) than talking on a phone (which I'm not).
3. Phone service through it is markedly cheaper than the service I'm paying for now, much of which is redundant now that I have a laptop that I can take with me.
So, after doing a little consumer research, I've decided I'm going to cancel my cell phone service, turning it essentially into a PDA/organizer, in order to save money every month. How much money? Well, a year's service plus an Omaha phone number for a year cost me less than a month of my current cell phone service.
So, to those few of you have my current cell phone number for texting, this is just a note to let you know that it will soon be invalid.
