Ip Telephony
If you've never heard of VoIP, get ready to change the way you think about long-distance phone calls. VoIP, or Voice over Internet Protocol, is a method for taking analog audio signals, like the kind you hear when you talk on the phone, and turning them into digital data that can be transmitted over the Internet.
How is this useful? VoIP can turn a standard
Internet connection into a way to place free phone calls. The
practical upshot of this is that by using Premisenet software

phone company (and its charges) entirely. |
