Congratulations to Irv and the Chicago based IfByPhone crowd. Today, Information Week’s Serdar Yegulalp wrote up a review of the IfByPhone service – and loved it :
So far the award for Single Coolest Thing Done With Open Source at the Web 2.0 show has to go to Ifbyphone. These folks have used open source to make custom telephony applications as easy as designing a Web page. Easier, even.
Indeed, and what a nice thing it is to see the larger world of media paying attention to voice and phone mashups. As a quasi-independent voice, IfByPhone is the best example yet of how you can add voice functionality quickly and easily to web pages. And for the web page designers, it’s all they might ever need. Good job, guys!
Thanks, Thomas!
Not only is the media paying attention, but the Web 2.0 folks we spoke with at the expo were excited to learn more about phone mashups and voice.
