February 06, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Mountain View, California – February 6, 2007 – With the VoIP widget, jointly developed by JAJAH and Pageflakes, everyone is able to make cheap or even free calls just as easy as making a traditional landline call. What's more: Now users don't even have to leave their browser startpage to initiate a call. Until recently, most low-cost computer calling solutions were accessible only to the technically savvy with a broadband Internet connection – times have changed.No headset, no download and no broadband connection. Last year, JAJAH launched a revolutionary new solution that allows users to make VoIP-based phone-to-phone calls without technical obstacles. Callers simply enter both their own phone number and the desired destination number on www.jajah.com, and JAJAH connects the call.
By teaming up with Pageflakes, a leading player in the rapidly-growing startpage space, JAJAH is now taking VoIP convenience and simplicity to a new level again. Users can now add a little widget to their personal startpage at www.pageflakes.com and initiate calls from the widget – without having to go to any other website.
"JAJAH is the fastest-growing player in the VoIP industry. We're delighted to partner with JAJAH to offer our users the benefit of simple, cheap calls right on their personal startpage at Pageflakes - without headphones, microphones, or software downloads," said Christoph Janz, co-founder and CPO of Pageflakes.
"We are proud to offer free or low-cost phone calls through Pageflakes. Partnering with Pageflakes offers additional users to benefit from the JAJAH services," says JAJAH co-founder Roman Scharf.
