Video Conferencing Super Bowl Party
For those people who can't be at your Super Bowl Party (especially your overseas friends and family), set up a FREE Web Conference using Skype — that way they can participate live during the event.

Here is how we we use Skype for our parties.

First, you need two FREE Skype accounts.  It only takes a few minutes to set up if you do not have them. With Skype you can make free voice and video calls over the Internet (Click to set up your Skype Accounts) You also need an unlimited internet connections at both locations to place the Skype Calls (most people have this service these days).

Before the party starts, we set the webcams and laptops up in a corner of the two locations you want to connect.

Make sure the Webcam is plugged into your computer, you've installed the webcam software that came with it and that it's switched on.

Dial each other using Skype and turn on the video.  Since the calls are completely free, we just leave the video conference up during the whole party.

Then people wander over to the cameras during the party and talk with each other, bet and taunt the other fans that are located in each party.

More Skype info or order a new High Quality Video webcam before the party.
