Internet telephony

Written on 8 Nov 2004

My wife is currently in Japan where her GSM phone doesn’t work. We’ve just had a chat using Skype. I don’t know if it’s the best internet voice service, but it certainly works fine for us. I know I’m a late adopter on many things (I remember colleagues using Next machines to talk to California, oh, 12 years ago), but this one is a very nice repackaging of the technology. Anyway, how good does it have to be for free?
