Sitting here reading the news online, listening to a multi-participant Skype talk in the background. IsraeliDad on his computer, talking with three of his brothers all in the same time. One is located in his kibbutz up in the Golan. Two others are in India right now, with Oren speaking from on board his boat, sailing as we speak, in the middle of a river in India, and Ofer from his laptop in the lobby of some hotel on the other side of India. Everyone talking on the same line, catching up with each other. All for free, and with very good sound quality.
I remember when I was a kid, a phone call to India would have been the only way to connect. Conference calls were unheard of, and the calls were frightfully expensive. We’ve come a long way since then!
