"Living a long way from loved ones leads to expensive phone bills. To avoid this, the ""Skype"" telephone via Internet service is the ideal solution."
"For an identical, or even higher, sound quality as on a traditional phone, this free service (all you pay is the Internet charges) is also very easy to use.
Once you have downloaded and installed the software, you register by choosing a user name and password. You can then find your contacts by typing in their user names and add them to your personal list.
"Click call"
Then just click on their name, and if they are connected to Skype at the same time, you can talk to friends for free and for an unlimited period of time. Skype was created by the founders of Kazaa and is based on Peer-to-Peer technology. If Mum isn't too clued up on the Internet, you will be relieved to know that Skype has a version that will help relay Skype to traditional fixed phones for a very interesting set rate. "
