Google Talk
WOW… Thats all I can say… Have you used Google Talk yet? It’s just amazing, and simple. The instant messaging features, are just so stripped down, and intuitive, and non-intrusive. I love it. I just had a call with an old friend, who I used to go to school with, he’s now in England, I’m still in Canada, and the quality was better than that of my home phone, and totally instantaneous.
I haven’t used skype that much, but for computer to computer calls, this is deffinately in the same league as Skype (from what I can tell). Hands down beats everything else I’ve used on all the features it has so far.
All you need is a GMail account. If you haven’t Google Talk yet, go try it out. If you need a GMail account, just leave a comment, I have 50 invites to give away. And then after that add me to your list, jj.curry@gmail.com.

I feel exactly the same way about Google Talk. I’ve enjoyed using it with microphones (on both ends of the conversation) as well.
