Google is taking on internet telephone companies like Skype by allowing users to call from its free web-based email service.

For the moment only users in the US will be able to make calls from inside their Gmail account.

Phoning anywhere in the US and Canada will be free until the end of the year, while calls to the UK, France, China and Germany will cost 2 cents a minute.

Until now Google offered computer-to-computer voice and video chat services.

Voice looks more interesting. I have ISDN, which brings call-forwarding as part of the standard, but I still need to set it up to whichever number I am going to be available on, but the Voice service makes all of your 'phones ring at the same time (landline, mobile, work, wherever you happen to be visiting)...
