Hey, I remember there being a discussion a while back about DZ making a jj2 TS server.
Back then i mentioned that there is a proggie called raidcall which works on similar principles as TS, with a bit of skype mixed in (you have friends, and you have "chatrooms").
It looked really neat, the interface was way more modern than TS and less tacky than Skype, but I was unsure of how it handled the voicechatting since I had no one to talk to.
I tried it out with kenny today while playing LoL and we were both very pleasantly surprised. Kenny created his own "group" (basically a chatroom, where you can type or voicechat or do both), each account can have one such free group (I also made one for GpW).
The program does its main function great, its default settings are very loud, so you can hear people with bad microphones as well (and ofc you can always put the volume down if you have the opposite problem).
The cool thing for me was, that this proggie uses less memory than skype, the voice seemed to work even better (at least with me and kenny, I havent tested how the thing performs with more people at once, but since it's made for gamers it should work).
As opposed to TS, raidcall is far better in the sense that no server is needed. Sure you can find free TS servers, but with raidcall there is no hassle, every account can have one free group, so every clan can have its own group. And from what I gather the owner of the group doesn't have to be there for the channel to work (for others).

We're definitely gonna be using it

Tinychat could be a reasonable alternative too. Apparently you dont need to download any PC app or even register an account to use, and it supports microphone and/or webcam for voice and video chat. Like Skype, it has some integration with Facebook. I havent fully tried it in terms of speed but just saying it could be functional.
