As most fervent and loyal blog readers very well know, the Fuso Szulc is equipped with a Datastorm Internet connection.
With this system websites can be visited and e-mail send and received.
Recently, after buying a plug-in for the MacBook Pro making it possible to see programs in Windows Media Player format, the programs from the Dutch television are watched.
But the most exciting option of the Datastorm Internet System is the VOIP.
Voice Over Internet Protocol making it possible to use the computer as a telephone.
Even a sophisticated telephone because in many cases it comes with an image of the other person.
You can actually see the other person talking when equipped with a computer with a small camera.
Like the MacBook Pro.
For this the services of SKYPE are used.
Basically this is for free when used from computer to computer.
By paying little money one can have a phone number, an answering machine and one can make phone calls to any number in the world of a real phone for a small fee.
Having SKYPE and a phone number, anybody anywhere can call.
If the computer is not on, the call will go to the answering machine and one can leave a message.
Later, when the computer is switched on it is indicated a message has been received and this can be listened to.
When the computer is on and a call comes in, it sounds like the phone rings and the call can be answered using the microphone and the loudspeakers of the MacBook Pro.
This is mind blowing because being solar powered and linked to a satellite conversations are held no matter where the Fuso Szulc is.
Yesterday, a phone call came in.
It was Jay, one of the many fervent and loyal blog readers.
His reason to call was yesterday’s posting where it was explained that while writing that sometimes it hurts never being needed as an artist-photographer, that very moment an e-mail came in with a request to go and do an assignment in Malaysia.
Jay believed that was too much.
“I like to read your blog every day but sometimes you go too far”.
What to say to Jay?
Because the absolute fact is that what was described happened exactly like that.
That feeling of always to have to show initiative when an artist, had been around during the day and it was decided to make it the subject of a posting.
During the writing of this posting the sound of an incoming e-mail was heard and it was the message with the assignment in Malaysia.
This is the one and only truth.
Absolute magic.
Deeply enjoyed.
By Jay too now.
