Skype works wonderfully.
I've been using it from my home on Baffin Island to sidestep our
horribly overpriced long distance phone charges.
I call my friend in London England, my mom in Brussels, my friend in
BC, my sister in Hong Kong and my brother wherever he may be.
The free version allows you to make free calls directly to other
users on their computers. The account holders who are willing to pay
can make calls directly from their computers to actual phone numbers.
I have to date only used the free version. I've ditched my home long
distance phone account and get a better quality of line connection.
Some times I'm calling half way around the world and it sounds like
they're next door.
Give it a shot.

Hello,
I was just wondering if anybody has heard of or used Skype (http://
www.skype.com/)? Is it any good ? I was still considering
getting Vonage when I heard about Skype.
It seems to work, but read the fine print before installing
