VoIP: Finally Worth a Look

VoIP: Finally Worth a Look

"Using IP to transmit voice is not new. Large corporations and long distance carriers have used IP to transmit voice on their private networks for years. Likewise, private citizens have used their computers and the Internet to talk with other PC users for a few years now, but in the past users of such solutions have had to contend with poor voice quality and the need for at least one computer to be connected to the Internet."

"Widespread adoption of broadband Internet service (cable or DSL) in the last few years though has in turn fueled a surge in the growth of much-improved personal VoIP. To get started, you need an analog telephone adapter (ATA) to convert your voice into data packets. (Your VoIP service provider will either supply you with the ATA for a nominal amount, or it may be included in their service offering.) In most cases, all you have to do is connect the ATA to your broadband modem and a conventional phone, and you're ready to start making calls to any phone in the world."

FCC Def: VoIP

2005-07-16T15:37:00.000-07:00

The FCC gives a simple definition:

"Internet Voice, also known as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), is a technology that allows you to make telephone calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular (or analog) phone line. Some services using VoIP may only allow you to call other people using the same service, but others may allow you to call anyone who has a telephone number - including local, long distance, mobile, and international numbers. Also, while some services only work over your computer or a special VoIP phone, other services allow you to use a traditional phone through an adaptor."

New Website Coming Soon

2005-07-14T07:00:00.000-07:00

By early next week, we will have to the website:

updated to a whole new look.

Tutorials:

Using VoIP for the First Time
Installing and using Thunderbird email client
Setting up an RSS feed in Thunderbird
Free VoIP calls through MSN Messenger
Free VoIP calls through Yahoo! Messenger

This is not a commercial site, so don't look for fast loading. If you are still using dialup, you have my sympathy. Cause you sure don't have speed.

Keep tuned.
