Gmail users can now make calls t home phones directly from their e-mail. Dialing a phone number works just like a normal phone. Just click call at the top of your chat list and dial a number or enter a contacts name.
Calls to the US and Canada will be free for atleast the rest of the year and calls to the other countries will be billed at very low rates. The rates will be as cheap as $0.02 per minute.
The new google service as per analyst poses a bigger competitive threat to services like skype than to traditional phone companies. Skype users have been making calls from computers to phones for a long time. With over 560 million registered users, Skype is most successful internet phone offering.
