Does anyone know a good website that has chatting but also able to use a webcam to do signing? I am hearing but I am wanting to work on my ASL because I don't have anyone around me to practice with. Any suggestions?
why not get a videophone? (vp-200)
I am learning ASL too, hoping to become an interpreter eventually I just passed ASL 2 at my college. I usually try to use the program Skype (it has voice/webcam) or MSN or yahoo messenger's video programs to sign with people from my class.
you might be a lot more advanced than me I don't know..but if you would like to chat sometime I wouldn't mind having another person to practice with! let me know and I can give you my messenger names..
I would deffinitely like to do that. Unfortunately I am still waiting to get a webcam. I hopefully will be getting one for Fathersday, if not on my birthday. Once I get that then I will be able to use those. I hear that Skype is the best for that.
That based on what kind of webcam you have...I have passed ASL level 3, there are no more classes here. Just need practice since the teacher went to work elsewhere, my deaf friend moved, my terp moved and now think I am only deaf in Angelo. I took ASL one, then became friends with the teacher, she helped with 2, then then the terp got me through 3. If there was anywhere closer than 60 miles you bet I would take more classes. I do try to keep up on lifeprint, but not the same as interaction, ya know.
I am having trouble now that I have my webcam up tho. There seem to be "trailers" when I move quickly or the image is blurry. Any ideas? Anyone?

Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 is the highly recommendation.Jclarke told me I have a not too good camera. The salesclerk told me it was the best they had. Pbfflllt. Well, now I am stuck with it. I was going to sell it on ebay, but cant seem to get what I paid for it. I think It'll do, but next time I get money I am going to try to go to a better store and try to get a better cam. It is a LifeCam VX 3000. I did the focus thing, and tried to do the settings. AnnieBoo was patient with me while I set the thing up. Anyhow, I have an ooVoo account.
I am also looking for more folks to add to hovrs. I would like to have one of those new mvp's. wow.
So, if anyone would like to help me with my quickly rusting skills, please im me. If you can't then, just email me. I need practice and I sure miss having someone to sign with. The hearies at work - well - you can guess. I am just a bit lonely out here. Hubby likes his remote! Ha! In the meantime, I downloaded lots of Keith Wann (ooh if I was only (cough-cough) years younger - he's so cute) to my psp. It's good company. Don't get me wrong, I have lots of good friends, and I love them. They are all hearies except for you guys, and I really like it here.

Hmm, good question Bots! haha! It could depend on his remote control! (nah, just joking - he's a good guy)
So, Bots, are you geared up for the the new Harry Potter movie?? I may go even if our local theater doesn't have captions. The effects would be worth it, I would bet ya.
