Make free SkypeOut calls to mom on Mother's day
Want to call your mom on Mother's day, but you've spent so much money on your blazing fast computer and high-speed internet connection that you can't afford the long distance bill? Skype and Intel want to help.Intel is sponsoring a day of free "global calling" over Skype. By global, they mean you can place the call from anywhere in the world, but you have to make your SkyeOut call to a phone number in the U.S. or Canada.
Normally, these calls would cost about $.02 per minute unless you have a Skype Unlimited plan, which runs $30 per year.
Of course, you don't have to use your free minutes to call your mom on May 13th, but if you don't, there's the risk that she'll hop on the internet and call you first. And that'll just feel weird. Next think you know, she'll be checking out your MySpace page and forwarding you emails about Viagra.
