Yesterday my Skype worked for a short period of time, but unfortunately it’s dead again. I was looking for an alternative when finally I’ve found Gizmo. This piece of software is pretty good. I’ve bought some credits and now I am able to call landlines overseas again for a lower price. I can even buy a local number and receive calls anywhere in the world. There are some disadvantages as Gizmo doesn’t allow call fowarding or video conferencing as yet. During this outage period Gizmo has been replacing my Skype with great success.
