Default Skypecast

Hello everyone!
I'm sorry I haven't been around much... I've been super busy at work. I'm happy to announce that we're going to be hosting our very first Skypecast next week. You can participate by downloading the software from skype.com (free), as long as you have a microphone on your computer.

I am planning on hosting it on Monday evening, around 6PM PST. Please let me know what you all think of this.



Thanks!
John

This Thursday would work as long as I got my backside home from my surgeon's support group in time. Hopefully I could get myself home by 9pm EST. If you decide on Thursday, John I'll try really hard to be there. It sounds as if it would be a lot of fun.

I honestly love the idea!
