Skyping with your spouse works well enough, but apparently it is hard to get the kids to hang out on Skype for long.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We FaceTime and Skype. My two older kids got iPods for their birthdays, so they can FaceTime their dad whenever they need him. They always get a six o'clock call right after dinner, and I make sure I talk to each child. Even my 1-year-old gets on the phone and says 'Daddy.' They know my schedule by now and count the days back until I get home.
My father and a bunch of my cousins and uncles, they didn't have the opportunity to use FaceTime or Skype, all these different technologies and advancements that we have.
Skype is one of the world's greatest inventions. I use it almost daily to connect with the people I care about when I'm away shooting. It makes the distance so much more bearable and I actually feel like I'm in the same room as my loved ones.
Skype is a wonderful invention. It might be my favorite thing because I get to see my family and the ones that you love.
Skype is a wonderful thing. The irony is that you never Skype when you're in the same country as someone.
Despite our ever-connective technology, neither Skype nor Facebook - not even a telephone call - can come close to the joy of being with loved ones in person.
We are in an age of technology where we sit in our little cubicles and we IM each other and Skype each other and never connect as human beings.
Skype is easy enough to use so that people don't need to be tech savvy - a lot of users just want to communicate with their friends and family, and they find this is the easiest, cheapest way.
There's a shift to mobile apps; I'd like to see a more pervasive communications experience, and I think Skype can contribute to that.
While I've spent a lot of quality time with my children, perhaps it's not been enough.
