Default Do you use VoIP?

There is an article being published later this week on VoIP, but I'd be interested to hear if many people use this already?

I do not use it yet, but the chances are that I will as it becomes more popular over the next few years. It's certainly a good idea.

it would feel unauthodox using my pc to call someone!

for me this is like putting salt in tea, or sugar on chips!

I have used VOIP and am sure that I posted a message about 12 months ago after some provider tried to sell me the service at work. I thought it was a bit freaky and there was a definate time delay between speech and response. I actually thought that I was talking to a computer at the time!

I am proud to say that I ACTUALLY know what this is for once!!

Kind regards
