Free Calls On Gmail – Watch out Skype!


In case you missed all the hype; this week Google dropped a bombshell when it announced a new “call” feature on Gmail. Gmail users can now call phones around the world at low rates, For those making calls to the USA, it will be completely free. Indeed the guys at Skype wont have taken this news lightly:

Calls to the U.S. and Canada will be free for at least the rest of the year and calls to other countries will be billed at our very low rates. We worked hard to make these rates really cheap (seecomparison table) with calls to the U.K., France, Germany, China, Japan—and many more countries—for as little as $0.02 per minute.
