To just send messages, email is good. The various messenger services (Yahoo!Messenger (Y!M), AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), GoogleTalk, MSN Messenger, ICQ, etc.) is a good way to have a good interaction. You could also look into some of the various chat rooms or IRC channels that are available (or even available through your IM client/service).

For voice, cheapest is probably to use an internet to internet service, such as Skype or one of the newer IM clients mentioned above. Skype for a subscription will allow you to dial a real phone line elsewhere (unless a promo weekend).

If you will be making lots of phone calls, I suggest checking in with your phone company (both land line and cell) and see if they offer any special packages to dial a specific region. Then compare that price to your current per-minute price and current/planned usage, and see what works out to be least expensive.

For example, Verizon long distance has an international flat rate plan for $0.95/month with $0.93/minute, an international choice plan for select cities for $4/month with $0.10/minute to Puebla, Mexico, and an international choice plan with unlimited country calling, but unsure if it is available in Mexico... Meanwhile Verizon Wireless offers a North American calling plan that extends your home area to include Canada and Mexico. http://mobileoptions.vzw.com/international/rates/na_calling_plans.html


As for what is best, I guess that depends on just how much interaction you want (text only, voice, time delay), and for what price.

As for clarity and comparisons, there are these reviews:

Skype is best. If you both download Skype, all the calls are free. If you call Mexico from your computer to a land line, it costs 10 cents per minute.

It works great!

I would say an instant messenger. Yahoo, AIM, MSN...all work about the same. Personally I use Yahoo and AIM. They work about the same. Sometimes AIM disconnects...Yahoo tends to do a bit better. But really, it doesn't matter which one.
