Our "super special" VOIP Shoot-Out episode! We review five different programs that all do... um.. pretty much the same thing - let you talk to someone, computer to computer, via the internet. Up on our dais of dissection we gladly give you, in no particular order:

• Skype (http://www.skype.com/)
• Gecko Phone (http://www.geckophone.com/)
• Yahoo! Messenger (http://messenger.yahoo.com/)
• Google Talk (http://www.google.com/talk/)
• Gizmo Project (http://gizmoproject.com/)
