Every once in a while, I have to exercise my responsibilities as one of Creative Weblogging's "network bloggers" (i.e. I blog on a series of CW's tech-related blogs). This time, it's to tell you about one of CW's newest sponsors for the tech-related blogs: AIM Call Out.
AIM Call Out gives you three ways to make cheap calls to ordinary telephones: through the AOL Instant Messenger client on Windows, using any telephone using the Web Connect feature, and if you're a geek, using any SIP-enabled device you desire. $5 is all it takes to get started using this service.

one of the coolest things about AIMcallout as well as one that is not well publicized is that if you have an aimphoneline inbound number you can now answer those calls on any SIP device.
aimphoneline no longer accepts signups; but they used to offer free numbers in most US area codes. anyone who signed up and has kept there account active can now use SIP devices in place of the softphone.
That is a nice feature. Too bad I didn’t sign up for a dialin number when I had the chance. Of course, that would have meant using AIM on Windows–something I haven’t done in ages.
