Irish Times Article - Google breaks new ground with free phone call service

Irish Times Article - Google breaks new ground with free phone call service: "Google breaks new ground with free phone call service
Dick Ahlstrom, Science Editor




Google, the world's most popular internet search engine, may soon become the world's most popular telephone service.

The web giant has launched a new service called Google Talk, which allows users to make free telephone calls to anywhere in the world via the internet.

In effect it would mean overseas and long-distance calls could be made free, provided you have an internet connection. This should slash telephone costs to near zero, leaving only the internet service costs."
