Free Long Distance



I know some will scoff and say this is old news, but I've just discovered Skype. I'd been told about ways to call people long distance for free over the internet, but I figured it would be complicated or require a really fast connection. Not so on either count! Just download the free software from the website, install it, and you're ready! You do need speakers and a microphone as well. I bought a microphone for $17.99 and it works great. And as for internet connection speed, I have ultra light DSL (128 kbps). The call quality isn't as good as a normal phone, but it's not bad.
