What can I do with Skype?

Skype is a fantastic program that will allow you to conduct interviews, make calls to friends and family and if you can spare a few dollars you can get skye in and make calls to phones and mobiles if they do not have skype.

The rates are very cheap however because I have skype you will be able to contact us for free.

Please be considerate as yes I do have a life so keep it short and to the point.

You can also add skype to your website so people can call you direct.

Free Skype Sound recorder

This is so far is a cracking piece of kit.

MP3SkypeRecorderScreenshot

I’ve been using it for just over a month. Easy to install and with excellent sound quality.

Unlike some types of ‘free’ VOIP recording applications which can limit your recordings from 15-30 minutes, there is no time llimit what so ever on this application.

You also have a choice as to where store your recording (click the yellow folder next to the ’settings’ making it easy to retrieve your recordings later) anywhere you like. If you find any bugs you can report it to developer as he welcomes comments and feedback.

Using MP3 Recorder.

The beauty of this recorder is that it records both conversations on a seperate channel if you do it in stereo so you can easily edit each voice.

Once you complete your recording use the free Audacity editing program to tidy up and add front and back music for seminars etc.

System requirements:

OS : Windows 2000, XP, Vista
.Net Framework 2.0 or later (will be downloaded from the Microsoft site and installed automatically )
Skype (you may have installed it already. Install it yourself otherwise – download Skype )

MP3 Skype Recorder is a free program which automatically records all your Skype conversations (including conferences). It stores your conversations locally in files using compact and very popular MP3 format.

The tool can record P2P Skype calls and SkypeOut calls as well as calls to Skype Online number. The program sits in the system tray and monitors skype calls.It starts recording automatically when you begin conversation.

It can record several calls simultaneously (one active with others on hold). When doing so the recorder stores every call in separate file for later use. Simple and intuitive interface requires almost no tuning. All you have to do is install the program and provide it with access to the Skype client.

Information contained in the conversation may be valuable for you in many ways for many reasons. Making and keeping the records may help your business and sometimes guard your reputation.

Main features of MP3 Skype Recorder:

  • It’s absolutely free with no limits attached.
  • Automatic or manual recording capabilities.
  • Compact format of stored records (mp3 files).
  • May be used to record P2P, SkypeOut calls and calls made to Online number .
  • Capable to track simultaneous calls and to save them separately.
  • Easy integration with Skype Conference recording.
  • Intuitive easy to use interface.
  • The program is distributed “AS IS” with no warranty, but it’s absolutely free to use.

Note: MP3 Skype Recorder uses a local port on your PC to get sound stream from Skype. That may get Windows Vista and few personal firewall products alert you with “low risk” warning.

To let the program record calls you should allow Skype Call Recorder access that local port. This won’t harm your system.

The program uses LAME MP3 encoder.

Anyway…I’m going to stop raving about this application.

Password Security

Today you need to remember many passwords.

You need a password for the Windows network logon, your e-mail account, your homepage’s FTP password, online passwords (like website member account), etc. etc. etc.

The list is endless. Also, you should use different passwords for each account. Because if you use only one password everywhere and someone gets this password you have a problem… A serious problem. He would have access to your e-mail account, homepage, etc. Unimaginable.

But who can remember all those passwords? Nobody, but KeePass can. KeePass is a free, open source, light-weight and easy-to-use password manager for Windows.

The program stores your passwords in a highly encrypted database. This database consists of only one file, so it can be easily transferred from one computer to another.

You can download Key Pass Free Today. Download Here.

Is it really free?

Yes, KeePass is really free, and more than that: it is open source (OSI certified). You can have a look at its full source and check whether the encryption algorithms are implemented correctly.

KeePass supports password groups, you can sort your passwords (for example into Windows, Internet, My Homepage, etc.). You can drag&drop passwords into other windows. The powerful auto-type feature will type user names and passwords for you into other windows. The program can export the database to various formats. It can also import data from various other formats (more than 20 different formats of other password managers, a generic CSV importer, …).

Of course, you can also print the password list or current view. Using the context menu of the password list you can quickly copy password or user name to the Windows clipboard. Searching in password database is possible.

The program ships with a strong random password generator (you can define the possible output characters, length, generation rules, etc.).

The program features a plugin architecture. Other people can write plugins for KeePass, extending its functionality: support for even more data import/export formats, backup features, network features, etc. See the plugins page on the KeePass homepage for downloadable plugins and an introduction on how to write your own plugins.

And the best: it’s free and you have full access to its source code!

KeePass is distributed under the GPL license. See the file ‘License.txt’ in the downloadable KeePass package for details.
