I’ve only heard about it when English people have mentioned it with regard to podcasting, so I don’t know if it’s an England thing or available in the US. What is it exactly?
Peer to peer voice service. Usable anywhere in the world.
I suppose I should have just googled it…
<sheepish grin>
thanks!
Skype is fantastic, I use it all the time to talk to my UK friends for free (I’m in New Zealand).
There are a couple of ways you can use it. From computer to computer, it’s just like MSN Messenger but with talking into a headset rather than typing.
But you can also use it to make actual phone calls, i.e. from your computer to their phone.
Computer to computer is free, but making a call to a phone isn’t.
Aplogies for lack of technobabble, I’m a bit of an IT dolt!
