Hi. I am in the U.S. and my girlfriend is in London, working on a project. I need to find a low-cost computer to phone and/or computer to computer messaging service to communicate with her. I have a Dell PC, she has a Mac Powerbook. We talk on the phone now, but it is limited due to cost. Alternately, if I could find some sort of cell phone add-on service, that might also work. She has access to a land line in London. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance for replies.

Both Mac and PC can use Microsoft Messenger
email is the cheapest…..it doesn’t cost anything. that’s what happened to my two friends….the girl went to london during the spring semester and her boyfriend (my friend) stayed here in the states. they emailed each other….a week after she came back…they broke up….hopefully that won’t happen to you and your gf
MSN or yahoo messenger! Voice message is just like speaking to her by phone, and is FREE of charge!
That’s how I communicated with my fiancĂ©e for 1 year evry night, and we re now married! Start using Instant messenging (IM) on ur computer.. AOL also provides the service.
You just need to buy a microphone from $6. WEbcam is also a plus!
For yahoo Messsenger Installation for free go to
Good Luck
