Free Phone Calls via the Internet - February 2006

Submitted by Rick on February 8, 2006 - 12:57am.
  • Computer User Group

Voice over IP (VoIP) is taking the phone world by storm. VoIP is a system of making telephone calls though the Internet instead of over traditional phone lines. By circumventing phone lines, you can drastically reduce the cost of your long distance calls....down to nothing in some cases.

Cable companies nationwide are offering a bundled phone service with their TV and Internet services. This type of VoIP costs a flat fee (usually around $30/month, but offers unlimited domestic long distance any time of the day or night.  

In today's meeting, we downloaded and installed a great VoIP product called Skype. Skype is free to download and use, but offers some advanced features as well. If a Skype user makes a call to another Skype user, the call is FREE no matter where that person is on this planet.

Other large Internet phone companies include:

  • Vonage
  • SunRocket

 

Skype also allows for users to call regular telephones or cell phones for a nominal charge...most major countries cost only 1.7 cents per minute!


 

 

We meet on the second Wednesday of every month from 9-11 AM OR 7-9 PM 

Please refer to our Information Page for further details about the meetings.
