YAY! It's super-easy. Just download Skype. (It's free.) Create a username, don't worry about entering any of your phone info unless you actually want to use it as a phone, too -- fandom chats only use Skype's instant messenger function -- and then when we have the chat, I'll post instructions for how to find us.
I generally watch things on my laptop with VLC player open in one window & the chat window open next to it. Some people watch on their tv-dvd players and chat on their laptops -- whatever works. When we watch something, someone counts down and everyone presses play, and then we have an international viewing party, easy peasy! \o/
This is basically how all fandom chats work, so once you have Skype set up, you'll be ready to go. :)
