Will the Networks Block Skype
Posted by Goldy in Uncategorized on March 28th, 2009
Over a decade ago cell phones were impossible to carry around because they were so big and had to technology on them whatsoever.If we now move forwards to the current day and age, we are seeing phones be released that have a selection of awesome features.
But most probably one of the largest innovations is the creation of internet access, accessing the web through your phone is just the same as doing it on your home computer. And this is causing network providers a huge headache. We all know that mobile networks have been making a fortune for years and this is because they overcharge to make calls.
But as internet access on mobiles phones grow so do access to free wifi spots, so this could potentially wipe out all of the mobile phone networks, because what is happening is that people are connecting to the internet and accessing Skype, which gives you the ability to have free calls between Skype users. Most of the UK providers have already banned VoIP access, but Nokia’s recent release of their N97 come’s pre installed with Skype giving users the ability to easily access the service.
The networks should not be blocking things like this, in my view, as it just makes them look ridiculous. We are currently in the midst of a huge credit crunch; people want to be able to find ways to save money. I truly believe that the number one reason the network three has grown is because they offer their customers the freedom choice. I believe that if the networks want to make their business a success, then they need to find a way to partner up with services such as Skype and offer a revenue share scheme.

How Would You Like To Have A Free Air Time On Your Cell Phone?
Posted by Goldy in Uncategorized on March 21st, 2009
People are always in constant communication today unlike in the past decades, communication is only for a few people. But now everyone has his own cell phone, his own laptop, his own computer and in his computer or laptop, there is sure to be a VOIP (voice over internet protocol) install somewhere on the hard disk. With a Voice Over Internet Protocol, they can get to give anyone a ring they want through the Web without paying much for long distance calls. Do you remember what is like long ago to speak to an operator while you are trying to make some phone calls overseas and do you remember who much it cost just for a 20-second call or a 30-minute call? In the past, air time is not that common and friendly to your finances but today, because of technology, air time is also getting expensive. That’s why, there are VOIPs and one of them is in the form of Magic Jack.
Magic Jack is a type of VOIP or Voice Over Internet Protocol that relies on your computer’s internet connection in order to place calls locally or abroad. What you need is just a USB Cable and that’s basically it and upon receiving the cable or device, you can immediately start making calls. Upon plugging the device, the software is automatically downloaded from the Net while you’re in the process of registering. Right now, a lot of people are using MagicJack rather than other VOIPs and they have good reasons why.
First of all, according to some Magic Jack reviews site, setting up MagicJack is very easy. And the greatest part is, they have a 24/7 tech who is on standby, willing to give you some additional information and help in setting up your Magic Jack. Magic Jack is also very affordable compared to cell phones. Sure, you might have some other network services like Yahoo! Messenger or Skype where you can also communicate with other people but if you want a less expensive way of calling anyone over the phone, then, Magic Jack is your best option.
