I have it. Haven't used it in a while now, though. Aren't they offering free skype to land line calls for a limited time?

Over here, as well as in north america and some parts of europe, one can buy credits with a credit card and even have their own "regular" phone number as to the Skype phone, so anyone can call it, and you can call anywhere in the world paying about the same as a local phone call - mostly because Skype transfer the call through the internet to a "phone" located on the city you are calling.

BTW, (for those who are new to that Skype thing) it also has a built-in chat function, just in case you want to tell something to your buddy in a silent way
My lousy local network (firewalls gallore etc.) often forces me to fall back to it...
I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

When I am settled in my own place with my own computer I will get Skype so I can talk to my friends and family in England.

As I understand it, it's a way of talking on the telephone via the internet, which makes for cheap and even free calls. I don't know the ins and outs of it though.

Skype works sort of like MSN messenger. You register for free, and you get an username, to which you can use to talk with someone over the internet, with a microphone, audio, and even a webcam - it can be through text too. The beauty is, you can buy credits for it, and use it to call regular phone numbers, even internationally, by paying the same as a local call. The Sype system redirects the call through the internet, and into a phone located at the city you are calling, therefore, making it a local phone call. You can also subscribe for an actual phone number, which re-directs the calls into the Skype program no MATTER where you are - this feature is only presente in some countries, Brazil, USA, I belive in Europe and Canada as well. If I subscribe it with a phone number from São Paulo Brazil, and I'm working in England, they can call into the São Paulo number, paying only for a local call, and Skype will redirect through the internet into my computer, and I'll be able to call them. Skype even offers real voIP phones you can hook up to your computer or internet connection, and using you Skype login, have it as a real phone - with the same features as the program.

I'll be moving real soon, and I won't sign up a phone number anymore. I'll hook up the internet there and buy Skype credits and a phone number through it.
