I had covered many articles about P2P, PC2PC and PC2Phone VOIP this december. Visit Here Now http://vonagevoipcalls.blogspot.com
Some of my gaming friends (if you dont know i am UT2004 Player), wanted me to talk something about VOIP in gaming. so here it is. This article however is a perfect guide to build a VOIP conferencing Facility for SOHO and small businesses from a traditional gaming VOIP solution.
It might not be something new to a gamer, but for those who dont know there are such VOIP applications ever exist. In the gaming space, there are many 2 major applications being used. First and the most popular Teamspeak & second Ventrilo
These killer applications gamers have been using for long. Lets first look at them before discussing how it can be used by corporates/SOHO businesses to collaborate teams.
1) TeamSpeak: This software created a revolution in the multiplayer gaming around a couple of years back. Before teamspeak, people used to use those in game voice commands, which needs the player to press a certain key before talking. That irritates the gamers to say the least. Imagine your enemy standing in front of you and you want to call for help. You start looking for that voice command key and boom headshot. :-)
Teamspeak thought the same, they wanted to create an application which needs less bandwidth (Noob Knowledge: Multiplayer games are bandwidth hungry and little lag can make a you NOOB) and platform independent. They finally creates Teamspeak 1.0 , the initial version has VOIP as its backbone and could offer all basic functions needed by the gamer. Popularly knows TS in the gaming space, this application never looked back. Today it offers more than enough features including different audio codecs for optimum performance.
I almost forgot to mention that Teamspeak is FREE for non-commercial use. If you want to use it commercially, you need to buy a license.
We will look at how to implement Teamspeak for SOHO & Small Business in the later part of this post.Visit Here Now http://vonagevoipcalls.blogspot.com
