Free VOIP !

[big man]

Hi Guys

I had this recommended to me by a couple of guys i work with - www.skype.com

Free P2P VOIP from the guys that made Kazaa. It's free from PC to PC, and the guys that recommended it said that it was crystal clear. I can't do anything with it here as i'm stuck behind a damn proxy and don't know how to get out, but apparently a normal firewall won't be an issue with this.

If you want to use it to call landlines they charge you, but i have no idea if the rates are competetive or not

Thought it might come in handy for you gamers out there. It apparently works on a dial up connection, so using alongside a FPS or MMORPG on broadband shouldn't be a problem (i guess)

Nah, everyone uses XFIRE or Roger Wilco..

You can use XFIRE & Roger Wilco to make telephone calls then? :coffee:

My experience of Roger Wilco (admittedly i haven't used it for a couple of years) was that the sound quality was less than impressive - this should be perfect sound. That was the main reason i posted it

Have tried Skype to talk to a friend in America the quality was like talking on a normal phone, the sound was clear and unbroken, I did by a USB handset to use with the software which might make a difference.
