I would suggest for everyone, for who it is too expensive, that you just both buy yourself a Smartphone and install Skype... + Internet for the phone... it's sooooo much cheaper and you can phone your SO everywhere you go! Sadly me and my SO found out too late that it is so easy... we definitely would have done it, if we would have known at the beginning -__-

Skype, which is sketchy and sucks most of the time. The internet connection in China is slow, but to call internationally to a China Mobile cellphone is expensive, especially on the receiving end, so skype it is. Also, facebook is censored so in order to use it you have to have a proxy or a vpn, which aren't always reliable, so that puts facebook chat out of the equation as well.

Mainly Skype, for hours on end Although we do text quite much, though the rates are kind of expensive. In the past, or when either of us can't access Skype, I use my international calling card, but it's very faulty and annoying to call with :P

Mostly online, msn.
My SO doesn't have free out of the country texting, I wish he did because I do. xD
Were going to get into more voice stuff, I actually just downloaded Skype, I'm sure he will be excited he's wanted more voice stuff for a long time but I was always very shy... But now that we have met in real life I think it will be better for me.

We use an Android phone app called WhatsApp the majority of the time, so we can text each other without charge when we're not able to go on skype for whatever reason, and if we want to go on webcam, we use our xbox kinects for live video feeds, which I have to admit is much more reliable and better than using webcams. He uses Skype on his computer, I use it on my iPad and we often fall asleep to each other. I have a webcam as well, inbuilt into my computer, and his laptop has one too, but we much prefer to use our xbox kinects
