First of all, you need to know which program you'll be using for the call. There are many providers who offer videocall. Skype, for example, is one of them. Yahoo messenger another, and there are manymany more. Then, get yourself a webcam (if you have a laptop, it may already have an integrated cam - check that out before spending money). Install it (it should come with an install-packet included), and activate the video option of the program you have chosen (Skye, yahoo, msn, etc.). Once all that is done, it's really easy. You just see when the other person is online, and then you click on the video call option (which is a button in the program you're using), and if the other person accepts the call - there you go!

One thing: the person you want to talk with needs to use the same program as you: you can't make calls from Skype to Yahoo, for example. It is always from Skype to Skype, Yahoo to Yahoo, msn to msn, etc.

Good luck and have fun,
