Hi
I've downloaded Skype and bought a headset but the problem is I don't have
anybody to talk to as yet (next weekend I'm setting up my aged father so we
can talk to each other!).

Is there any way I can test how this all works? I can hear noise on the
headset but don't know if the microphone bit works.

This probably sounds totally feeble but please don't just troll me.
TIA
Caaagh (skype name)

Thanks - but that was way past my bedtime!! I found that you could select
"Skype me" - I got bombarded with calls (which freaked me out). I think my
headset works but I'll wait until I can use someone I know to test it with
(too scary otherwise)
