Skype
Instant message, VOIP (internet calling) and video calling software.
Skype is heavily used here at Start Smarter, with one director in London and the other in Northampton and other writers all over the country Skype is a cheap and easy way to seamlessly communicate without running up a huge phone bill.
Skype is free to download and use, however you can ‘top-up’ or buy a ‘subscription’ allowing you to make calls to phone lines around the world for very competitive prices.
