Swapping Vonage for Skype: One man's search for VoIP that actually works

[phishhead]

Yes, you read the headline right. I have long been a critic of Skype, suggesting that eBay was foolish to buy the VoIP toy (http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=2&url=http%3A%2F%2Fasay.blogspot.com%2F2005%2F10%2Fwhitman-we-bought-skype-to-make-its.html&ei=UXn4Rr6WF4rKhAOk2fS5BA&usg=AFQjCNFlwjtrPIHltNgTGHqKkaS1HRRNPg&sig2=9gmPzFlPQr17a5ZEv0Wgsw) and generally ridiculing it as a serious business tool. Today I'm eating crow, and it tastes great. Why? Because Vonage has been complete rubbish for me, whereas Skype is increasingly approaching perfection. I dropped my traditional phone service for Vonage. I'm now about to drop my traditionally awful Vonage for Skype.

I have been using Skype for over two years now. It has been a very good service.

By the way Phish, I have mentioned that before. :o
