.: Voice Over Ip – What Is It And What Are The Choices?
Category:Home / Technology / VOIP
Voice over Internet Protocol. First was the telephone. Alexander Graham Bell had a vision. He saw people communicating over long distances with their own voice, not trough beeps and squeaks. Then came the Internet. A few students and the US military had a vision, somewhat similar to Bell’s. They saw people communicating over long distances, but this time in writing. And it was from two visions combined that the future of communications was born – Voice over IP. This type of communication uses internet data flux to transmit compressed information from a PC to another or from a VoIP receiver to another.
