With the holiday season now far behind us, some people may still be wondering what to do with gifts they received.
If you were the lucky recipient of consumer electronics, which were an especially 'hot' item this year, you may be one of many people wondering what to do with their new computer or new webcam.
If you received one of these items, it's possible to start enjoying the vast amount of advanced capabilities offered by video conferencing sessions.
Be it connecting remotely for a video conference with colleagues to discuss business, or using the new webcam to chat with family and friends located at a distance, there are a number of advantages to video conferencing and what you can do with your new webcam.
To help you uncover these points, SightSpeed (News - Alert) Guy, Peter Zottolo offers, "Top 10 Things to Do With Your New Webcam." Below is a run down of that list:
10. Run through the animations, avatars, funny CGA and emoticons included with your Webcam.
