On the Phono Blog today, Voxeo Labs announced the release of Phono 0.6 with some exciting new features including the first public release to support WebRTC.
We’ve covered in other posts some of the developer stories from the AT&T Developer Summit. myaNUMBER gave a presentation at the Summit of their Telecom API-enabled service, here is a cute video demonstration:
Google recently released nearly $70M worth of opensource code to the world, in order to help improve real-time communications (RTC) over the Internet; they call it WebRTC.
“WebRTC is a free, open project that enables web browsers with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple Javascript APIs. Their mission is to enable rich, high quality, RTC applications to be developed in the browser via simple Javascript APIs and HTML5.”
Interestingly enough, we at Voxeo Labs have a complimentary mission for Phono: to provide a simple Javascript Communications API that empowers developers with the ability to build robust voice and messaging communications apps; these apps can run in any web browser and on any mobile device.
Today we are proud to preview our experimental WebRTC support for the PhonoSDK. Since WebRTC is so new, it only runs in Google’s Chrome Canary experimental browser. The video below demonstrates an encrypted Phono-to-Phono – voice and video – P2P WebRTC experience in a Canary browser and we hope you’re impressed with what you see.
Note: there are a couple of additional videos on the page that demonstrate what else we are doing with Phono and WebRTC!
Approximately 30 Los Angeles .NET, Ruby, PHP, and Javascript developers attended this Saturday’s LA Holiday Hackathon at Outlook Amusements sponsored by RightNow Technologies and Tropo. The theme of the event consisted of building a Voice, SMS, or Instant Messaging holiday application based on the Tropo Scripting or Web API. Here is a photo of everyone hard at work hacking on their holiday Tropo application.
We are proud to feature Speak2Leads on this week’s Tropo Customer Spotlight. I sat down with Sammy James, the Founder and CEO of Speak2Leads, to discuss their business and how they are using Tropo (and Phono).
Remember when the iPhone was only available on AT&T? That was true until October 11, 2009 when a young coder named geohot (and friends) released the first iPhone/iPod jailbreak. Suddenly iPhones weren’t tied to to just AT&T…now you could give AT&T the boot and choose Verizon or T-Mobile as your service provider. Score!
