wow,  when I read in a daily that we can now call to phones in canada and US from our gmail , i thought to try it out . For that I switched to a proxy and downloaded and installed the google voice plugin from gmail.com/call

When I restarted my forefox, I saw a similar ‘call phone’  buddy added to my chat list and when clicked a dial pad poped up.  I selected India from the drop down and dialed to my number – bingo! my phone started ringing and it was from a US number

Then I tried to call to one of my friends and he picked the phone , and talked with him for a few minutes – again tried a couple of another friends and it was ringing, but none picked – it is working hours in US.  The voice was so clear and there was no delay and it was told that the response to this system is very good and this can be a potential competitor to the telecom companies – may be they will unite and levy charge to receive calls from google ?

wait and see how will the rest of the world will react to this ‘google way’ of calls !!!
