Hi, I just read about an exciting tech demo from Vivox that will allow SL avatars to place a phone call to the real world using SL objects. Did Linden Lab assist with this demo, and if so, to what extent?
I'm interested in writing about this on my blog, so I'm interested in as many details as possible, thanks.

Vivox showed a truly exciting demo at GDC, complete with phone booth inside of SL that could be used to call people in RL. They built this on their own, and while we've been impressed and have discussed the project with them, there is no integration deal at this point.
We're looking at several different voice technologies, and also at how voice in SL might be used. We'll be looking for feedback from the SL community before we make any decisions about voice in Second Life. _____________________
