VoIP as a business tool

Network World Fusion 09/16/03

No, not just as a replacement for POTS. Mitch Ratcliffe ponders linking blogs with VoIP - through a service such as Skype (which combines VoIP with P2P to create a low-cost phone system). Imagine, he says:

"A Skype tag that allowed someone reading a blog entry, a Web page of any sort, or any document that supported calls to Web resources, to click a link to open a VoIP connection with the author would be a powerful foundation for a business model in social software. ... Tie expertise to follow-ups, so that you could ask a blogger a follow-up question or ping a lawyer for a bit of advice after reading their Web page; the key being that there could be a fee for real-time personal connections -- or not, as it is also easy to see how the recipient of the call (the author) could use the right query to unlock more information and, so, would not want or need to get paid. "
