Jajah.com web-activated telephony

Posted on | December 29, 2007 | No Comments

This is pretty sweet: Sign up for a jajah.com account, and you get Skype-like telephony but on your home phone. The calls are initiated using the web site, and both parties’ phones ring. Essentially, the service carries the long distance portion of the call using the Internet and feeds the ‘last mile’ through the local phone network under fair use inter-telco agreements.

It’s incredibly cheap from and to most de-regulated countries: $1.50 for an hour from Germany to Canada :)
