I'm normally just doing a mental mapping of when's good to call someone based off my time anyway, and their usual habits — "My brother is normally free to catch up when I get off work at 5pm". Rather than — "My brother is in France and there it's 6pm, therefore it's a good time to call him." If I don't know, I'll send someone an IM — hey Steve, fancy a call to catch up? I'm free for the next hour or so if your around now. Otherwise I'm free all day Saturday.
