“the award for Single Coolest Thing Done With Open Source at the Web 2.0 show has to go to DialogTech.”
What is the “Coolest Thing” they are referring to? Well, as the article puts it:
“Enter DialogTech, a “cloud telephone app platform.” Anyone who can build a forms-based Web app can now also build a telephony app. The whole system has been constructed along the lines of existing Web services, so it’s all a bunch of APIs that use HTTP and XML.”
The cost for entry also is absurdly low. Any developer can use 100 minutes of phone time a month just to play around, or charge 8¢ a minute after that to their credit card. (If you buy a contract, you can get as low as 3.5¢ a minute.) It’s also available instantly — no waiting for a port or switch to be provisioned.
For more information, take a look at our developer API, “Cool” phone applications and press room.
