Keeping in touch

There are plenty of ways to keep in touch with us. If you've received the link to this blog that means you probably know us well enough to have an e-mail address. Well, we'll do you one better. We have free live video calling.

If you have ever used Skype for video calls, you know how cool it is. All you need is a webcam connected to your computer and free software downloaded from the Skype site and you can make free video calls to anyone else who also has the Skype software installed.

Kara and I used it to keep in touch when I was on a business trip to Europe for a week last year, and it really helped us feel like we were staying in better contact from half-way around the world. I have used it to connect with my office when I'm out on long trips as well, to the point that we can even hold up sketches or photos to work together on some of our creative tasks. As long as your internet connection is fast and stable enough, it's a really good setup.

If you want to try giving us a call, our home address through Skype is "millerblonde". If he's awake, we can show you the baby live.
