CALLING HOME

Hello everyone,

My last entry requested information on telecalling experiences. Since our blog is not indexed yet, I will continue from where I left and you can join in once we are live. So here are some  tele-alternatives.

  1. VOIP: Besides skype (incase you haven't tried, download from http://www.skype.com/ and voila you can free calls to skype users anywhere and cheap calls to regular phones), another interesting one that I found is http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/07/04/free-international-calls-from-pc-to-phone-with-google-talk-and-talkster-gtalk-to-voip/. Has anyone tried this, any good/bad/great experiences. Considering  both these options are free, the sound quality is excellent. Have you experienced it otherwise. Any tips. 
  2. From Phones: I am told Airtel one happens to have the best rates (1 cent/min), giving about 600 minutes for about $10 (inclusive of monthly rentals). Although difficult to believve, I also hear there are some issues with customer service, call drops etc but the voice clarity is top of the line. Any interaction
  3. Calling Cards: Obviously there are many providers but callingcards.com seems to have excellent options.
 Are their any other services, besides the above, that you have experienced and would heartily recommend as well as comment on the alternative mentioned above.

More later
