Information Madness

If you haven't heard about Google Voice or if you don't use Google Voice, today is the day you want to do both. Google Voice, Google's answer to Skype has just announced the cheapest calling rates to all over the world.

Google Voice used be only available for USA for the last two years and there were ways you could use Google Voice from Indiaor outside USA but today Google officially announced the launch of Google Voice outside USA. Google Voice is now available to many more users of Gmail outside the U.S. by offering calling in 38 new languages.

You can now buy calling credit in your choice of four currencies (Euros, British pounds, Canadian dollars or U.S. dollars) and there are no connection fees, so you only pay for the time you talk.

Google has also reduced the calling rates for over 150 coutries including India and Pakistan. Calling to India Mobile from Google voice is now only $0.02 (2 cents). So now you can practically make free calls to India using Google Voice.

Google is rolling out this feature over the next few days, so if it’s available in your country you’ll see a little green phone icon show up at the top of your chat list and you’ll be ready to make calls (you’ll need to install the voice and video plug-in if you haven’t already).
