Hello from Livesights Communications! My name is Gillian. Thanks for contacting us about our service helping to bring families together by setting up their own "livesights" - vision-and-sound virtual visiting across the Internet. This initial response to your approach is automatic. (If you are seeking Livesights Communications' journalistic and multimedia services, please contact us via <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. For administrative issues, please contact <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.)
It's possible to set up an effective livesights system for very little cost. Assuming you want to establish vision-and-sound contact with one other person, all you need is a computer at each end with broadband connections, a camera/microphone for each computer, and reliable, user-friendly software installed to handle the vision and sound connection between them. Our service is to set this up for you and ensure you understand how to use it, to enable you and your far-away relatives or friends to benefit from this cutting-edge technology irrespective of how much technical expertise you have. Using the connection method and software that we recommend, you can talk, see and interact with each other almost as if you were sitting in the same room. It's far more effective than a phone call. It's possible, if you wish, to keep the picture and sound connected for hours, days or weeks. You can have a private online "home" where you and your relative(s)/friend(s) can gather. The possibilities of this kind of arrangement are impressive. Imagine Dad sitting in his chair thousands of miles from you. It's perfectly possible for his computer to be set up, with his permission, so that you can connect to him without him having to touch a thing. With a few mouse clicks you'll have your live picture of him on your screen, call out to him, and the conversation starts while he remains across the room in his chair. If it's a problem for him to actually get to the computer to start up his live picture of you, no problem -- you can take control of his computer and start up that picture yourself. He doesn't need to touch a thing -- he can just look and speak. The remarkable thing about all this is that it costs very little to set up and maintain. If the whole thing sounds like a 21st century miracle -- it is! And we'll help you to use it and become familiar and comfortable with the system. In order for us to be able to assess what help you might need in setting up your own family livesights and to provide you with a no-obligation estimate of what the costs would be in your case, please send an email to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> answering the specific questions below. If any of the questions are too complicated for you, simply say so. 1, Do you want an arrangement simply between yourself and one other person, or involving several family members? If the latter, how many? 2. Where are you and the relative/friend(s) who will use the service? (Which country? Which town or region?) 3. How comfortable with computer use are you and the other people involved? 4. Do you all already have computers? If yes, how new are they? (One year, two years, etc? What make and model are they?) If no, do you need our assistance in acquiring computers and setting them up? 5. What computer operating system(s) are you using (Windows PCs or Apple Macs)? Do you know which versions - for example, Windows XP, Windows 98SE, Mac OS X? 6. Do all the computers which you want to equip for vision and sound links already have broadband Internet access? If not, will you need our assistance in setting up such access? 7. We are assuming from your approach that you want us to set up the actual vision and sound arrangement for you. Is there further help you'll need with any other aspect associated with this that you haven't already mentioned? 8. Do you already have cameras and microphones installed on the computers you wish to use? If not, would you wish us to buy them and/or supervise the installation for you, or would you plan to do this yourself? 9. Will you need to be able to operate the distant computer(s)? Will you also need to be able to turn off and restart that computer or computers remotely? We look forward to receiving your replies so that we can provide you with a quotation and full details of how we can help you.
