Is there a way to just take a number of some web page and dial it? Perhaps route it via my iPhone? The scenario I am talking about is this: let's say I am looking for an apartment on craigslist. it lists a phone number. I'd like to be able to call that number without having to go and get my phone.

I'd like a solution that does not involve any more monthly fees, charges, etc...

I don't think there are any solutions without costs, if you're willing to have costs you'll have several possibilities, with Skype being the most popular. – Nich Del Jul 10 '11 at 23:38

If you use Chrome as your browser, then you can get a Google Voice account and the Google Voice extension. Then you'll be able to click on a number and it will route it to your phone.

You can also add your Google Chat account to Google Voice and you don't even have to go get your phone. – jaquer Jul 11 '11 at 0:21
Yes that's true, but wont that incur a fee? – Peter Maxwell Jul 11 '11 at 0:30
It's free for calls to the United States, otherwise you get charged, yeah: google.com/chat/voice – jaquer Jul 11 '11 at 0:51
Alright, cool. That's good to know. This sounds like the best option then. – Peter Maxwell Jul 11 '11 at 17:52
