Hello from Across the Ocean

Technology today is so cool. Tonight I got to chat with my brother online while he is in Iraq. We got on a conference with my parents too. We're not even talking about the old fashioned, typing back and forth. We got to do a voice conference with our microphones and we turned on our webcam and my parents web cam, so Jeremy got to see the whole family. It would have been cool if he had one, but at least we got to chat for 20 minutes or so. It was about 5:30 a.m. his time and 9:30 p.m. ours. He had to leave for breakfast, but it was good to chat with him. Hopefully, we can do it more often.

Oh, that's so cool, Jennifer! Glad you got to chat with you brother & that he got to see you & your parents. Too bad you couldn't see him, though. I sent Jason a webcam, but he hasn't been able to use it yet because he only uses the work computer. We do get to instant message once in awhile, which is pretty neat. Where in Iraq is your brother deployed to?
