VOIP, Web services merge
BlueNote Networks presented a version of its IP telephony and voice application development package that enables customers to weave Web services into their voice networks.
This is according to NetworkWorld which says: "What`s new is an API that can be used to integrate telephony and voice features into other Web or enterprise software packages based on service-oriented architecture standards such as XML and SOAP."
"Voice-enabling our software is something that`s important to us," says CEO Mark Ustik. The company plans to integrate voice and telephony features such as click-to-call into his reservation system`s Web interface - allowing limousine customers to connect to a call agent via a transportation company`s Web site.
UK varsities get free VOIP
Software provider Ubiquity Software announced Tuesday that it was tapped by Inuk Networks to offer VOIP services to university students in the UK, writes TMCNet.
"The adoption of Inuk`s telephone services in a college campus will allow students to make and receive calls from SIP phones in the halls of university residence dormitories and from softphones on their PCs and laptops," explains the article.
Just as with many VOIP service providers` calling plans, it says, the company will allow subscribers to communicate with other subscribers free.
