Skype, now acquired by Google, is a messenger as well as a voice chat. = You can call anyone else that has Skype and talk to them via voice. If = you have a headset, its like a regular phone call. The clarity, IMO, is = the better of all the ones I have tried personally, although I am sure = other systems have either improved or WILL improve. The clarity is good = even on dial-up modems... no broadband required. Making calls to other people on Skype is free. But, you can also make = regular phone calls to all over the world. All you need, obviously, is = the phone number of the recipient. The phone calls are NOT free, though. = Its cheaply priced, but not free. Here's the address: http://www.skype.com Its believed that Google will use this newly acquired technology to = compete in this market again the regulars in the IM industry as well as = VoIP. ---Troth -----Original Message----- From: pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx = [mailto:pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cris Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2005 1:36 PM To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: -=3DPCTechTalk=3D- Skype ok!! lets start this different story!
