I have been voice chatting wity my spanish friend for a while now and I can't believe how much it has improved my spanish. At first it was discouraging because it seemed like I didn't know anything but I stuck with it and am so excited about the progress I've made.
At first the pen pals that I found only wanted to text chat on messenger or exchange emails. This was helpful for my writing and it gave me time to look things up before I would write back but I was looking to voice chat and actually start speaking spanish. I searched for while to find a friend that wanted to voice chat, but I was persistent and it paid off.
Polyglot is a good site and it's free but I couldn't find anyone that wanted to voice chat. I went to My Language Exchange (links to both are on the right) and although they charge a minimal fee it was worth it. I actually only signed up for one month and I found 2 people to voice chat with so I didn't sign up for another one. I think it's around $6 for 1 month and the best thing is they don't auto renew your membership so you don't have to remember to cancel.
We use skype to voice chat and it is great. It's free for voice chatting and it is clear. I haven't tried yahoo or msn messengers in a while but I have heard they are pretty good as well.
