    Yep -- use SEROUT and SERIN to do the talking. Make sure you connect the Vss pins between the two boards or it won't work. You can find examples that will help in the manual an help file under SEROUT and SERIN.

    You can't expand the program memory, if that's what you want to do.

    Since you're new, what you should do is read our "What's A Microcontroller?" book, then "StampWorks" (written by yours truly). WAM will get you started, StampWorks will teach you more advanced skills, including how to add I2C EEPROMs to BS2 family modules.
