PC to PC calls With VoIP!!


There are Many Ways to call from your PC:

When we talk about VoIP there are now literally dozens of choices for calling from your PC.  There are Two Main methods of PC-based VoIP calling.

1a - PC-to-PC calling.
1b - PC-to-Phone calling
PC-to PC calling is also known as "In-Network" calling.
When you call PC-PC, it is usually free.  The reason is that, the most part, your voice data is moved over the Internet.  And, as we usually know, moving data over Internet is generally free. PC-to-PC calling is usually enabled by using a Softphone, which is software on your PC that emulates a telephone dialer.
Few Examples of VoIP services that allow free PC-PC calling are given below:
- Google Talk
- Yahoo Messenger or Yahoo Voice
- MSN Messenger or Windows Live Messenger
- Skype
- Gizmo5
Millions of people have used all of the above services at one time or another for testing.  Among them the most favorites are Google Talk and Skype. It doesn't matter who is your VoIP service provider, PSTN charge them money to VoIP providers, to allow Origination and Termination over the PSTN Phone networks to landlines, or cells. For that reason, the VoIP service obviously has to pass those costs on to you.
But there are some temporary offers where a VoIP service will give you truly free calling, take for example SKYPE. At first, Skype offered FREE PC-Phone calling anywhere in USA/Canada.  It was wonderful offer, but as we all know those days of free Skype calls to PSTN landlines is gone.  But, they became popular because they started out by giving away FREE phone calls.
Here we are listing some VoIP services that have softphones that allow PC-to-Phone calling for..... Very low rates:
- Skype
- Gizmo5
- Efonica
- PcCall
- Windows Live Messenger
- Yahoo Voice
- Hotfoon
