Through Internet connection it is possible to make free Internet phones
calls. All you need is special software that allows you to use VOIP VOIP
lets you talk to other users over the Web and, depending on your phone
system and number dialled, allows computers to call normal telephones.
From version 3.0, Skype improves audio quality, features video calls and
has a connect with the world option on Skype Public Chats.
VOIP
uses your existing internet connection to send and receive the calls.
If you have a generous download limit from your ISP it means that calls
to anywhere in the world will generally be free. In some cases there is
a charge when talking on normal phone handsets - this is because they
need to plug into the local telephone exchange at some point. It can still
work cheaper because the connection usual occurs at the local exchange,
so you can make long distance calls at the lower local rates. Keep in
mind that VOIP is so young that you'll need to look carefully at the costs
and its limitations. Skype is free, so you can give it a go. At minimum
you'll be able to talk with other Skype users across the world and as
more VOIP exchanges appear, this will slowly generate new free ways to
make calls.
