subject: Half Your Phone Bills With Cheap International Calls [print this page] Communication technologies were very important in the development of all the great ancient societies:
Around 2900 BC, paper and hieroglyphics transformed Egyptian life;
The ancient Greek, who loved spoken word, used public speaking, drama and philosophy to communicate;
In the 14th century, the printing press helped develop new ways of communication.
And now, we have the Internet, which is infinite with its services as a form of communication. More and more people prefer to send e-mails instead of ordinary letters, because it's faster. Many consumers use VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), instead of ordinary telephones. VoIP allows users to plug in their phones and speak over the internet and it is relatively cheap.
Another internet based form of cheap calls is Skype. It's a free service that allows you to make Skype-to-Skype calls, account holders can speak to each other for free and even video message as well. Skype is even available on some mobile networks meaning you can chat on the go to friends and family in foreign countries for free. The only disadvantage to Skype is that internet access is needed - especially if mobile Skype is not available. Skype can be used to call mobile and house phones if this is not possible, but this is often more expensive than other means of making international calls.
Using a direct dial access code is a great way to make cheap calls to mobiles and landlines without the need for an account or internet. Direct dial access codes work by dialling a code before the number of the person you wish to talk to. Since direct dial access codes can be used on the go and don't need an internet connection, so they are also more flexible than net based ways of getting cheap international calls.
Finally, calling cards are a popular form to make cheap calls. Buying a pre-loaded calling card allows you to make cheap international calls without worrying about big phone bills. The cards are also portable meaning you can carry them with you at all times. The only negative feature to calling cards are the chances of being cut off as your budget runs out. Make sure that your card has enough credit and enjoy your calling as long as you want, as far as it can be.
