Although it is nothing new in the internet world, it is surely most useful than ever. Skype.com is a website where you can make live video calls between 2 people or an entire boardroom. It goes for an unbeatable price-tag of...FREE! In real estate this is a great assest whether you can't make it to an office meeting or need to present a contract/ speak to a client anywhere in the world. International phone calls on the website of course would come with a price but not with video calls. To sign up, it is very easy, it is similar to an AOL Instant Messanger or MSN messanger where you build a friend list and can interact with a person when they sign on.
You download the application which takes all but a few minutes and then need a webcam and microphone which many web-users already own or have built into there PC and/or laptops. There are millions of users already on Skype but I see it as such a great tool for the future of business. Honestly, I think everyone should have access just like they have created an aim, facebook page or myspace. Beyond its easy access and convientent approach to connect with colleuges and clients, it is truly impressive. Also, in my area at the New Jersey Shore, Skype actually interacts with our MLS system so you can call the agents or homeowners directly from your computer when searching a listing and it is remarkably useful. My skype username is 'RJSRealtor' where I am actively building my friendlist and conversing with business people internationally. Feel free to add me as a contact. www.skype.com
