Title: Skype Talk
Post by: Phantom on April 20, 2004, 08:04:28 PM
I found this program called Skype. It is a free online service that allows users to talk to each other by way of speakers (headphones) and microphone.

It also has a conference option that allows multiple users to talk to each other at once.

I just thought that it might be something to look into when playing in any multiplayer game. Mostly because it frees up your hands so you don't have to type messages.

The only thing for Roger Wilco however, is that it goes through IP adresses, Skype goes by usernames regardless of the IP.
It is more compatible than Roger Wilco, and last I heard, Roger wilco is no longer a free service. Or I could be wrong...

unregistered Teamspeak 2 is free, and works nicely, I use it.
