Call mobile phones using Google Talk

I’m a big fan of Google Talk, but didn’t really like how limited its VOIP capabilities are, so I’m stuck using Skype, at least for now. Today, I found a pretty cool tool called Jabphone which allows you to make outgoing calls directly from Google Talk! The service uses libjingle, Jabber, and Asterisk to work and looks quite promising. You get 15 free minutes of calling time and more minutes can be bought by creating an account at the Jabphone
