gmail does phone calls

If you have a pc with a microphone and speakers or a headset you can take advantage of this great service. You install the sound application (under settings) and if you have a camera it will spot that too for video calls between gmail users. (like skype). The latest addition is to be able to call ordinary telephones. It costs 2 cents to ring a uk number. This service is only available in the US and Canada, but to make it work in the UK just go into gmail settings and change your language to US English. The quality is excellent, and all calls to US and Canada are free.
