Philleo witnessed a tech demo where Vivox founder Monty Sharma's avatar "walked to an in-game phone booth and punched the digits to his own cell phone, which then promptly rang.

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

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

Close!

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. :(

I'll believe it when I see it.

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