The Internet has come a long way from the old pay-per-minute dial-up days.
One of the areas of progress is that of the Internet and phone. If you have a high speed Internet connection, you can actually set up your phone to work through it. This is called VoIP, or Voice over Internet Protocol. VoIP uses the existing technology that you have in place, along with a special headset or adaptor for your phone. With the right equipment, you can use your Internet and phone to totally reduce your phone costs. And you can do it easily.
