Wow that's pretty cool. I wonder how they managed to hook the microphone/voip software into SL.

Random guess: they send out an email via LSL which triggers the connection between the two VOIP endpoints.

You click on the VOIP button and a box appears saying - "Download MSN today". I'm looking forward to VOIP. I'm gonna learn how to speak again. I tried talking to somebody the other day and it just came out all weird. I also find myself wriggling my fingers when talking to people now.

Llab doesn't really have a phenom track record as of late of releasing features.
