i use skype (http://www.skype.com)  You can find friends with common interest and common language (the search has a language field) and talk over the internet with them (requires a nice computer, and a faster internet link)

It is completely free if you call any sykpe's members at the same time you can call any land lines, mobile phones in Canada and USA for free( other countries are restricted )\n\nhere is how to download\nhttp://www.skype.com/\n\ngood luck!

Any fax machine works with VOIP. You can even use a free fax via email from jfax or efax. I have VOIP using Skype and Meritcall at meritcall.com and I have a fax machine that I use to fax people with and I use Meritcall. But to receive, I use my jfax free version and I print them myself.\n\nIt's hard to use Skype with fax machine because you have to get a Port Converter for Skype. Which means you have to buy a hardware that will enable your usb to phone line.  Which cost about $30. Search for USB Skype in Google or Yahoo.\n\nI bought my fax machine in '89, and it's still being used, then migrated to VOIP 4 years ago, and it still works.

I have used it. It's good software. It cleverly links AIM, YM and MSN Messenger (and perhaps ICQ) in the same session. Just one program does it all.\n\nI do not use it anymore because I use AIM only, IF that.

I don't know about the reliability of Skype  because I have never used it. I do use Yahoo Phone Out which is a minimal fee  - $2.50 per month plus one to two pennies per minute world wide. You just need a headset with a mic attached. Mic does not have to be attached, it just makes for much better sound. Also I use the Logitech headset/mic with USB connection instead of using the two plugs in my laptop. It is better quality than actual land line.

I have been using Skype for a year now and I love it!  Right now, they are offering FREE calls anywhere to the U.S. until 2007!  Take advantage of it.  \n\nI pay Skype to have a phone number so people can call in. When it does cost money, it only costs like $0.02 to call in the US and Europe.  You can't beat that with the telephone companies!\n\nCurrently Yahoo has a similar thing but they do not have free calls, only a free introductory 10 minute call, or something like that.

Personally, I use trillian, it's an instant messanger program. It allows what is called tabbed windows so each buddy list shows up in a single window, this helps. If you want to go to live chat which I also use, Get a headset mic this helps eliminate a lot of background noise. Web cams I would go with logitec they are awesome excellent quality. Down sides - static sometims like a really bad cellphone, delays, sometimes don't work with certain programs. web cam's always have a delay fster speed connection and your computer speed all of that factors into the length of the delay. I use Skype it allows even phone calls to land lines and is crystal clear though I haven't as yet tried the video function it works well and even has a conference feature though I believe that does cost.

No i dont, however if you have a internet capable mobile see www.skype.com as an option for downloading to the phone.\nthe software is free to use. however on a mobile you would pay the data transfer rate your operator set for standard internet access.\nyou could always try www.majorgeek.com to see if there is anything listed on there suitable for the job.
