I’ve resisted using skype for a long time and it was a big mistake. Multiple times per day I find myself using Skype to make long distance phone calls. I’ve installed it and have been very pleased with the SkypeOut feature, which allows me to call any regular phone. I came across a post today by Mark Evans which describes an “All-You-Can-Eat SkypeOut” program for only $15 bucks! If you’re reading this and don’t know what skype is, please go check it out, its worth a free download. www.skype.com
