Just wondering how many Synth Zone members use VoiP, (Skype being the most popular) if there are quite a few perhaps the Administrator could add an extra section in the Members Profile, including how many hours in front or behind of GMT.
I myself have only just got round to this, but it would certainly give an even greater communication between Members.

I use it all the time. It's simply awesome not to mention free.

But it's a good way to keep in touch.

Its also great for calls to landlines as it is so cheap compared to standard international call rates - I was abroad in March and made about 30 hours of calls to the UK (including mobiles) and it cost about 25 euro.

I use Skype to internet telephone chat (PC to PC) LIVE & 100% FREE, with MANY of my fellow 'Synthzone member' buddies, all around the world. Skype also supports free world-wide 2-4 way conference calling. The voice sound quality is outstanding (& with no delay or echo). It's brought my friendship with fellow SZ members closer than ever. If interested in chatting with me:

Hi Bill - Abacus-...
I am in Rotherham,South Yorkshire
I also have used the Skype service to speak to Scott and Tony. It's a marvellous sevice and the voice clarity is perfect. I also have used the Spontania Videocam service whereby you can also see each other as well as speaking. It is marvellous to be able to see Scott and Tony (and also saw Tony's wife and daughter!).
I also talk to one of my former work colleagues who is retired and now lives in South Africa using Skype to his ordinary land line and the cost is minimal.
I just tried to call you but was unable to find you from the Skype address you put in your mail.Can you check it please?
@Tony Rome. You are in all our thoughts right now Tony and family. We want you to come back to us when Wilma has passed. Please keep us posted if you can.
cheers
Eddie Johnson
