Mumble is a free voice-over-IP (like vent or TeamSpeak) and is a breeze to install. Get it here:
http://mumble.sourceforge.net/
(Below you will see a windows version, a Mac OS X version and Linux. The Windows version works on any version of windows from XP to Windows 8.1 I believe.
(It's virus and malware free. checked it with 4 scanners, and have used it for over a year).
Takes less that 3 mins to get it installed, and add my server info:

Come on in and check in!! If I'm not in at the moment, others may be!! It would be a great way to actually TALK and hear other members voices for a first time for many!! Give it a try, and let me know if you got in ok... I'll be in there on and off! And even late at night many times!
Can't wait to talk to some of you!! (This is a second test that is part of the Ironworks Radio show.. We'll take 'callers' this way eventually.
