Yesterday I discovered this great service that can add a great deal where there are bandwidth problems or discontinuous connection to the internet. In fact so far, I could not use Skype with my family in Italy because they still have a PSTN connection to the internet which does not allow enough band to sustain a voip call. Thing is, for them, that things are not going to change because is not in the current plan of TelecomItalia to connect rural places like the one my parents live in.

So, this service, Jajah does something even better than skype: you pass to the page your landline or mobile number and you select the landline or mobile number you want to call everywhere in the globe. That’s it. After a couple of seconds your phone rings and when answered you can hear the ringing tone of the number you have selected.

The rates are comparable with those of skype.
