Whats on Your Mind ?

Michael Judd setup an aster­isk sys­tem for adem­piere com­mu­nity to use. once the accounts for peo­ple are cre­ated you can access it using a voip soft­phone or a hard phone.

With the ser­vice we can cur­rently con­fer­ence, and call exten­sions for free. Mike have the servers located in data cen­tre in Lon­don which has plenty of band­width. (1,000GB/month) he has some inbound UK num­bers which can be routed through dif­fer­ent call groups and queues. You can sched­ule time­zones and only route to cer­tain exten­sions at cer­tain times of the day (so as not to wake you up at night).

Cur­rently, there is no out­bound call­ing (as that costs money), but he can add addi­tional tele­phone num­bers for dif­fer­ent coun­tries and route them directly to you.

Peo­ple who want to join the sys­tem will be able to call and trans­fer calls to each other — so this could be used as a col­lab­o­ra­tion tool for support.

Mike is presently look­ing for other inter­ested par­ties to try this out — please con­tact michael dot judd at aku­na­group dot com if you are interested.

I have tested it using Ekiga on 256 Kbps band­width from Air­tel Broad­band ser­vices , it works well some screen shots below
