Skype simply amazing!

June 4, 2009

I'm sure all of us are using several Instant messengers. Windows messenger, yahoo messenger, skype and a lot more. Yahoo IM is quite popular and I am using it too. But I want to blog about Skype. I had to use it when I need to call someone abroad. I must say it made me save a lot of money for international calls. Here are the reasons why.



1. Skype has better quality when it comes to calls.
2. The interface opens up in quickly in old computers like mine.
3. Has lower calling rates when compared to Yahoo! Messenger IM - Landlin or CP calls.
4. And last but not least, they support Paypal if you don't have a credit card to buy their skype credits this would make it convenient.

I'm here in the Philippines. Often times I communicate with my aunt, uncles and cousins in America. It would be very money-wise if a lot of them knows how to use an IM. But my aunt and uncles don't. So they had to use a phone card to call us. First time I scrolled over the call rates of skype I was amazed! It's very cheap when you are going to call someone in the states! For as low as $ 0.021 cents! OMG, I liked it when I can use my Paypal funds to buy their credits unlike with YM which doesn't have this feature. When I had enough bucks in my Paypal account I bought $10 and guess what?! I was able to call them hours longer compared with buying cellphone load here or them buying phone cards there. But I'm a bit sad because my skype credit is almost out of funds and I am going to try to earn some more bucks online to get more credits in Skype.
