Thank you. But I think that writing is also one of the way to improve our speaking skills. Because almost all famous erson whose speech very well, always make their dialog before they speech.

That is what I thought. I have no microphone.
So, if I buy a microphone, we can really speak together (not only write) in some languages.

I took a look to the technical details. This small program seems to be very good and well realized.
In order to find more easily other Ec members in the Global Directory of Skype, I suggest to register ourselves using this naming structure: "EC-" followed by the EC nickame. Some examples:
EC-Frengo
EC-Violet
EC-Dixie
And so on... hope we will be able to test it ASAP!

I have to make a correction to the suggestion i gave you in my other post.
Inside the Skyper directory there are lots of names related to the EC prefix. It is better, then, to put also the phrase "EnglishClub" (without spaces) inside the "About" field of your profile, since this field can be used for searches inside the directory... should something be unclear please let me know, I'll be glad to support you!

Oh my God!
I don´t know even how to use MSN messenger, How can I use the famus "Skyp...something".
Well, I´ll try, I only need to buy a Micro. could you give again and CLEAR please the URL?
I think it is important to know what time GMT is any of us in front of the computter. Example:
I use internet at the office, but here I don´t have micro, then I go home and I´m be able from 03:00 AM GMT. The GMT is very important friends. Don´t get confussed wit the local schedule please.
Now give your GMT schedule

No problem, Dixie: just go to your profile and add the string "EnglishClub" into the "About" field. This will be the effective way to find EC members in the global directory...

So, be patient !

You can't? That's weird, I am sure that's my username. Tell me yours, and I will try to find you.
