VoIP, the internet telephone revolution is here!
Tuesday, September 12, 2006
If you haven't heard of VoIP yet, you really need to educate yourself to the technology that is revolutionizing the telephone industry. VoIP, or Voice Over Internet Protocol, is a new way of placing telephone calls through the Internet to either data or internet networks and to regular phone networks and telephones, also called Public Switched Telephone Network. Why would VoIP ben advantageous to me? Well VoIP can make that long distance call go over the internet for a fraction of the price by routing the call over the internet instead of different telephone companies. With VoIP you can use special VoIP headsets or even regular plain old telephones with adaptor's if you choose. If you've heard of services like Skype and Vondage then you've heard of VoIP, and if you know their prices then you realize it's a great deal compared to the regular phone companies. There's so much more on VoIP but I really recommend you going to Tech-FAQ and reading up on this more yourself. They have books, different companies, FAQ's and much more explaining the in's and out's of VoIP better than I could. Check them out to learn more about VoIP.
