Talk All You Want- Free with Talkster

Sure, you can voice-chat around the world through Skype and other services. But Talkster lets you reach out and touch an actual telephone in addition to online calling options.

Free long-distance and international calls are worth putting up with a couple drawbacks. The service requires you to perform a convoluted dialing procedure: It gives you a special local number to reach a faraway friend, and your pal gets a local number too. You dial your local number, after which you have 10 seconds to tell your buddy to call back on their local number. You stay on the line and wait while they hang up and dial back.

You might hear an ad while waiting to connect again, but the two of you can talk as long as you want after the hook-up is complete. I thought calls sounded good, although one call recipient questioned the quality.

Okidoki, no prob. You can chat real time wherever the world through Yahoo Messenger and other Skype. But these 171435-talkster_180 don’t do what Talkster does: It lets you reach out and touch an actual telephone in addition to online calling options. Now that is a blessing isn’t it?

With Free long-distance and international calls provided by Talkster, there are a few hitches. The service requires you to perform a patience trying dialing procedure: The service sends you a special local number to reach a faraway friend, and your counterpart gets a local number too. You dial your local number, after which you have 10 seconds to tell your buddy to call back on their local number. You stay on the line and wait while they hang up and dial back. Dang. I got lost there!

Oh, there’s inhouse entertainment by the way. You get to hear free ads while waiting to connect again, all they lack now is someone to take your order.

“French fries with your call, sir?”

Oh well. That’s Talkster for you.
