Hi all,

Here is a good article on how to set up video calls, so you can keep in touch with people that you know:

Link:
How to make video calls to stay connected


It includes three different methods to do it, and it's step-by-step.

Have fun!

Oh sorry, I am used to links showing up in different font/colour/underlined so didn't hover.

It doesn't happen automatically on RootsChat postings. When you create a link you have to put in the underline yourself.

Thanks Trystan, needed this. Brother just asked me to set something up so he can chat with our mum in her nursing home. Whilst I think I'm reasonably computer savvy, I haven't done any video calling, so this is a big help.  :)
