Free Voice over IP Software

Ladies:
Thought some of you would like to have this software. It even works when talking locally or anywhere in the world as long as both parties have the software installed.
This piece is free, but the company is also selling other features.
Try it.... It might help those that have long distance people they need to communicate with with the US and international. I know also that it works between the US and the UK as I have successfully used it.

I've been using Skype for over a year now. It's excellent and yes, its free for computer to computer connections. My SO and I use it regularly. We use it to avoid international call charges in my office to our UK sales office.

All you need is speakers, mic and a dsl or faster connection.

Is it full duplex?

I remember a few years ago, using a VoIP software that was only 1/2 duplex. Only one person could speak at a time. Sorta like using sw radio. You had to remember to say 'over' so the other could speak. Problem then was having more than one person on and two trying to talk at once after the third said over.

Donna T:
I just love those technical terms; "Full Duplex"
Yes it is, and the conversation is not broken up in anyway.

I just used it with the SO. Its great to be 380 miles away and be still able to chat and surf the web together hands free.

There are few software products that I RAVE about. This is free software that's worthy of RAVE!
