TokBox

I discovered what could very well be my new obsession while I was tweeting away at work today. It is a communication website called TokBox. At first glance I thought it was a knock off SKYPE, but after 2 minutes of completing my profile and given a brief virtual tour by Lauren (some lady from Tokbox) I was well on my way to discovering that TokBox is in noway a knock off - it's the real deal. TokBox is a free website that allows you to video chat with up to 20 people at once, (Skype only allows you to view one other person at a time while chatting), you can sign into any one of your other instant messaging screen names and have all of your contacts appear on one consolidated webpage. I already gave it a try with my mom this morning during work and it was great.

So for all of you avid SKYPERS out there, hop on over to TokBox and give it a try. I can't wait to be able to see my friend Kristin in Colombia, my mom back in Minnesota and Danny in Chicago all on the same screen talking at once! And did I mention that it is FREE!

So if you're reading along back home and would like to sign up you can find my profile HERE!

Ok that's all for tonight - not a whole lot going on down under this past week, but summer is finally under way and that means that alot more of my posts will be featuring me oceanside with a margarita, sunglasses and laptop in hand, keeping you all up to date :) And probably making you all ridiculously jealous if you are in Minnesota bearing the sub-zero temperatures, while I prance around in my sandals and bikini for Christmas.
