[mahlon]
If there isn't a local voice post number in your area, or if you just want to use it for fun – you can now voice post to LiveJournal via the Gizmo network for free.

Gizmo is a voice over IP application, comparable to Skype, but embracing open standards. Learn more about Gizmo, create an account, and get a client here.

To voice post to your journal, just call ljvoicepost from your Gizmo client. It should work exactly like the normal voice post service does – just use the Gizmo dialpad.

Enjoy!

Update: We've found a potential issue for people with slower connections - if you're having problems calling in with Gizmo, check this link.

Are you sure it's free? Sounds like you have to pay to call phone #s.

gizmo is free for IP to IP calls - you only have to pay to phone a land line.

Can we not expect Skype VOIP posts in future because of the open-source issue? Just curious.

Nice work anyway!

It's not really an open-source issue. It's more that Skype doesn't use the same IP telephony standards as Gizmo -- which are standards so we can interface with them. No way to do that right now with Skype since it's proprietary.
