Free Telephony For All!
Now you can call friends for free (if you have DSL and Skype)!
Skype is offering free calls to anywhere in the US and Canada with its VOiP client, Skype. The way it works (as far as I truly care) is by downloading the client at Skype, then you install it. You can then place calls to other people with Skype or people with normal phones. You need a microphone and sound system to do so of course. Unfortunately, you can only make outgoing calls, so no one can call you back, you need to pay for that service.
Finally, I can feel free from the NSA!
Update: Skype is no longer free as of December 31, 2006; however, at $19.99 a year, or something like that, it’s still somewhat cheaper than using a phone. You can also make your friends get Skype and you can talk to them over the client.
