Using Skype

If you are not familiar with Skype, currently owned by eBay, using the service is simple. There is free software available on their main portal that installs on your computer. You will need a microphone and a speaker to make calls with the service. But this all you need once you have an account established. And calls to other Skype members are entirely free. And calls to other numbers are inexpensive compared to current telephone service rates.
