Anastassia,
  Nice collection of resources.   ;D
  When a guy is starting on this journey, he is usually operating in complete ignorance of the resources available.  I know because I was there not that long ago.  We stumble around for a long time, costing us a lot of money and emotional pain until we figure out a better way to get where we are going.  This list should be required reading for newbies and oldbies alike.

THANKS

FREE calls to Russia, UK and other countries.

I have used the VoiceIP for making FREE calls to Russia and UK and very cheap calls to other countries.

Sometimes the lines are not good and you have to redial but most of the time is very good line.

another address that will translate a 'whole web page' from one language to another, it does not necessarly have to be Russian to English, or English to Russian, will convert many different languages

This is a wonderful free site to help learn Russian and english (for the ladies).
It has many other languages too.

It's actually a collection of different lessons, might find one style suites better than another.

CHEAP CALLS FROM NETHERLANDS TO FSU
http://www.televergelijk.nl This one compares the prices of the various operators using 0900 numbers to call abroad from the Netherlands.

There are quite some differences in prices, so it might be worth to look around for the lowest rate so you can talk more for the same money  ;D

Thanks Manny,

Babelfish doesn't do Russian. I am surprised. It is a well known name.

The first translator is the best I have used....it still jumbled a few words. :)
