What make human a human? No, I’m not planning to go into philosophy, and I’m not going to tell something you don’t know. The single most important feature that distinguishes humans from the rests of the creation is the ability to talk. Language allows us to make use of symbols and symbolic thinking. It also allows us to share plans. Without language we would not have rules that govern our marriages, alliances, and relations with other people. Language is part of the culture, if you learn another language you learn another culture, and it not depends if you want it or not.
Usually life spreads even the closest people all over the world. There was time when friends and family could not communicate with each other that freely as we are with technology we have today. There’s many websites like facebook, twitter, myspace, also programs like msn, yahoo, google talk, and many other that I’m not going to list here provide what we call now socializing. However, I want to introduce one program that I want to share with you about. It is Skype! I love this program because it's gives me ability to talk and see my girlfriend that lives 8 hours away. My uncle using it to talk to his wife that lives in Ukraine. Think about people you want to see, but there's distance.
Skype is free software that gives you ability to stay in touch with people that matters to you and never worry about cost, time or distance. Main features:
Free Skype-to-Skype calls.Free video call.
Free instant messaging.
