Thing 3: Using Skype
My wife and I have been using Skype frequently for the last 3 years; just after our kids and grandkids moved to Gig Harbor, Washington. I also used it a couple of Sundays ago during my fantasy baseball league's draft. One of our owners moved to Florida and he participated in the 10 hour draft using Skype between my computer and his.
In my school district, virtually all streaming video feeds are blocked. If they weren't, I would use it most frequently in my Model UN course. It would be a blast to try and contact diplomats or kids at other schools in the countries we are representing. To get some first hand knowledge and just experience the human interaction would be quite an education for my suburban students.
