Every week Tobias gets online with his grandparents in the US. Here he is just chatting away and showing off his foot-biting skills. He enjoys this a lot, as do we. That is, both him biting his foot as well as talking to Tobias' grandparents in the US. Even though it seems technology has made great advancements sometimes it feels like being thrown back in time. Agreed, back in the 50s we did not have a means to see video of each other across the world (unless maybe we were on the Ed Sullivan show...), but breaking-up connections and bad sound quality, not uncommon using such programs as MSN Messenger or Skype, do remind me of the stories I have been told about telephone in those days. Anyway, telephone has improved and serves as a frequently used backup means to online conversation. I have to admit that if you choose your time well (not on sunday nights I guess, when everyone is having conversations online) high quality audio AND video online sessions are possible and very enjoyable and judging from Tobias' reactions I reckon he agrees with me... In this particular conversation mommy had the sole voice channel available (the phone) in use, and as you can see Tobias was claiming the video channel all for himself :-).
