Learn to Use Skype to Connect with Friends and Family

February 18, 2012 by Marie Jobling

With new computers finding there way to senior and community centers all over town, time to roll our trainings.  For the Community Living Campaign, we are beginning at most sites with a  Skype training.  Here Marie’s daughter, Amy, volunteered to help residents of Bethany Center chat with each other in different rooms and even to residents upstairs in their apartments.  With the help of Bethany Center staff, the residents who spoke 4 different languages, all learned together.

What’s Skype?  A free, easy way to use your computer to make no-cost video calls – to people across the street or around the world.    To learn more about Skype and where to find the next Skype training, go to https://sites.google.com/site/clcsocialmediatraining/.

These trainings are sponsored by the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP) and the San Francisco Department of Aging and Adult Service.
