Okay, so I'm completely computer-stupid. I have an HP laptop (don't know if that's relevent) with a webcam, which I've never used and don't know how. But my cousins and I really wanna do a video chat. Ummm... HOW??

Most of the people in my school use a site called www.oovoo.com its completely free, and safe, and really easy to use. I have an acer aspire laptop and I had problems with my webcam too because I couldnt find it, but once I got an oovoo occount it worked instantly and I was video chatting with my friends in no time! :-)
Also, if its not an account you want to use, typically you can go on aim and video chat (this works if you and your cousins DONT have macs)
have fun video chatting! xoxo

ps. for aim video chatting, simply open an im with the person you want to vid chat with, and there is a video button next to the font styles button. Just press on the video button, and it will invite your cousin to a videochat. :-)

I use a website called Blogtv.com. All you have to do is make a free account, click "Start recording" and then your cousins can come to your page. You can click their account name and click "co-host" and then you'll be able to see them as well :) hope I helped!
