This an online program that allows you to call people using the internet with no long distance charge.  You type a message in and hit the "GA" button and your message will be read by a randomly selected talker.  You can first test it out by calling yourself.  Have fun and avoid any giant enemy crabs.

But unfortunetly, if you don't live in the US, you'll end up with a crab or two. :/

So what! I wanna get out! 'Cos there's so much out there! So many different people, living different lives! Incredibly good guys, bad guys... Folks completely different from us! It's one huge melting pot! See, it's not about success, dying in the streets, who's better, who's not! I just want to be a part of it! I realized that even if I've no connections, no talent, even if I'm one big loser, I want to use my hands and feet to think and move, to shape my own life! We can just die here or we can try, see what we've got!

Who cares?  Skype is free until the end of the year, and it can call any phone you want ;)

Yeah... but do you get some person that MUST say what you type?  That's one thing that's really fun.

Ok come on, can we get off the topic about skype?  In case you haven't realized, this is allows for some very funny situations unlike skype which is normal talking, and that if you need to call someone but need to be quiet, here you go, like in school! :P

No, its still and will always be free to call other skype users.  To call REAL phone-lines though, used to cost money, but until the end of this year, it is free! n__n

Probably, but not for sprint.  Search Google for something like IPrelay
