FreeRinger offers Free International Calls to 30 countries

Today we discuss about a VOIP Servicee called FreeRinger which basically hijacks into Talkster's Free international calling platform.

Whats the difference between FreeRinger and Talkster? The only difference is the caller now is not tied to the Phone. Talkster needs you to use their service via Phone but now FreeRinger allows you to bypass the Talkster gateway and connect directly to your party. However the rest of the communication is still carried on the Talkster platform that means the other party still needs to call into talkster to be connected to your call.

I see Free Ringer as a good altenative if you are already using Talkster and confortable with their platform and the way they work. FreeRinger is powered by Gtalk2VOIP and Talkster. We always said that Gtalk2VOIP is a strong VOIP platform which can hook into anything and we have successfully designed many hacks using their forwarding platform.

For newbies, Lets understand how you can possibly make free international calls using FreeRinger:

1. Enter your friend's phone number in international format: country code followed by area code followed by local number. Examples: 16502345678 is for USA/California, 442012345678 is for UK/London.

2. Press Call button. If this phone number is not yet listed on your roster, a subscription process will be initiated and new contact created.

3. Upon success a new Talkster number will be allocated for your friend to reach you back on the web. A phone call will be placed to your friend's phone number and you will hear a voice prompt informing you on call progress.

4. Once connected, you will have 10 seconds to tell your friend to call you right back to their Talkster number, while you are staying on hold and waiting. Your friend will learn their Talkster number from: a) SMS message sent during subscription, b) CallerID displayed to them, c) you can tell them their Talkster number.

5. After your friend calls you back, the system will connect you both again and you may talk as much as you want.

6. Press Hangup button at any time to terminate your call.

7. Click on a contact and press Call to initiate another call to same number.

Besides this, You can now also call other SIP URI. 1. by entering SIP address in phone number input box, or 2. by providing SIP URI in the URL, like: http://freeringer.biz/?callto=echo@gizmoproject.com

Of course, Free Ringer will only allow you to call 30 countries which fall under the Talkster allowed country list, mainly USA, Canada and most of the european countries.

Overall, I would qualify Free Ringer as add-on service to talkster platform than a stand alone VOIP service.
