[COMP] Woah, free telephone calls

This is one of the coolest free services I've seen.  You can place long
distance phone calls for free through the internet.  I guess this
service makes money off of the banner ads or something.  This thing
launches a java applet, which allows you do dial actual phone numbers,
and voila, couple seconds later, you're talkin to whoever you want.
I doubt it works internationally though. :)

Unfortunately, this is windows-only.  I got a rather unfriendly "Linux
Elf 2.0 not supported," so I haven't gotten to place a call yet.
I heard about it from a friend who called from RI though, and the sound
quality was just as good as any phone call.

Very choice stuff...
