I would use this app to call friends in Germany. At the moment I use a phone card with my land line and it is a total pain. When the minutes on the phone card eventually run out, then I would like to go to a better system. "Time to Call" might be that better system.

As for my suggestion to your developer, I think you might want to overhaul the look of your entire website. Honestly it is really not very easy or pleasant to read or browse. Maybe find some sites that have a better look and go for something like that. I like the format of the Gear Diary site a lot. It is very easy to read and navigate. The Gadgeteer is also well done, but more for the pictures. I wouldn't say your website is as bad as a Dr. Bronner's soap bottle, but it comes close. I agree with a lot of the suggestions previous posters have made. I am not trying to be mean, just constructive.

I could use Vonage Time to Call my sister in Munich German and it would save me a ton of cash with only 99cent calling for up to 100 different countries. The question should be why wouldn't Iuse Vonage Time To Call?

I don't keep in touch as much as I should with my relatives in Taiwan. Mainly because phone calls are expensive. With Vonage Time to Call I can call them more often

As for site feature I like to see a search bar so I can search for what I'm looking for

I could use Vonage because I have several good friends who live in other countries and I would like a cheap way to talk to them more often.

#131 By 590650 (75.105.43.98) at 8/26/2011 4:45:45 AM
Site suggestion: Use larger fonts and drop down menus.

My family has always sponsored exchange students from around the world. We have former students from France, Japan, Brazil and Kyrgyzstan, and we'd love to be able to talk to them more often!

I didn't notice an archive area. Perhaps that is something you should look into...

Did twitter and facebook, too. Thanks!

I could use it to call my friend K who moved to Ireland. Our kids don't pocket dial each other anymore :( It would be great!

#146 By 590845 (75.138.98.201) at 8/26/2011 12:37:21 PM
new site feature- um, is it just me or is this kind of like a site from the 90's? I am not trying to be rude here, but hey- modernize yo! comments, pictures, colors!

#147 By 590850 (173.51.88.41) at 8/26/2011 12:44:02 PM
I would use the time to call my son in Germany I have not seen him in 22 years and it is very expensive for me to call him.

Please add a search button.

My name is Brittany Hardy, and I liked the FB page. I also tweeted and am @fathomMYlove on Twitter.

I would use the Vonage Time to Call app to call my grandma while I'm studying abroad in Spain. I love my grandma to death and can't go one day without talking to her!

#149 By 590889 (174.17.162.27) at 8/26/2011 1:57:48 PM
I think the site needs new vibrant colors like orange, blue, green, etc.! It needs something that makes it stand out. Also, I think a Twitter or Facebook widget would be really nice to add so that fans can keep up with what's going on!

I'd use this to call my BFF when she heads to Japan with her military husband soon. She'll be there for a 3 years and it'll be tough. But I'm proud of the sacrifices her family makes.
