Phones.. you use em everyday, they're a part of life. You can get so nice free phone services like voicemail, phone email, and other sweet shit, right on the net. Broadpoint has a nice program that offers you long distance calling for free. You listen to (ignore) a 15 second ad and you get talk time. Its 1 ad per 2 minutes of talk time. These things are great for prank calls from pay-phones and calling mom to come pick you up at the movies. The offer is called FreeWay and is found at http://www.broadpoint.com myTalk is a place that gives you an email address, and a toll-free number with and extension. So say someone sends you an email, you can go online and check your mail via the web, or if you're away from home, you can call up your toll free number, enter your extension, and you can listen to some geeky voice read you your messages. You can also send messages over the phone, it'll encode em to a .rm or .wav file for you and send them to the address you specify. Visit their site at http://www.mytalk.com Ok, so you want voicemail so your friends can contact you, no problem. uReach has a great voicemail system. You get your OWN toll free number, thats right, no special extensions. People can call your number up and leave you a message. You can get their message by going on their website, logging in, and hearing it in audio format, or you can just call up your number and hear your messages. They too also will read you your email and you can send email from there. They also have a sweet fax service where you just send an email to say 3132987600@fax.ureach.com and it'll send that message to the fax machine you listed in the address, in this case its 313-298-7600. You can hook up with uReach at http://www.ureach.com There are tons of other free phone services around the net, you just have to look for them. I know Excite.com has some free voice-mail system. Thinklink.com also has something, but you have to give them your credit card number. Look around, you'd be amazed at what you can get for free on the internet. matt (matt@kire.net) (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((#yep)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
