Hm... I tried firefly waaaay back when it was just a client to client voice chat app (sorta like netmeeting)... it was kinda cool... got to complete strangers on the other side of the world talking and singing (yes, singing).

Didn't know they've now got VoIP integrated with it though... could be useful.

i just noticed about 5mins ago a firefly VOIP add at uni!!!


Firefly VoIP internet phones - shuttertalk - Aug 9, 2004

I assume add = advertisement?

Where did you see it? Smile


Firefly VoIP internet phones - dave - Aug 9, 2004

basically around uni they have notice boards where people can post stuff (car for sale, books for sale etc) and there was an A4 (done in word) printed add describing firefly VOIP and the call rates to various countries.


Firefly VoIP internet phones - peter - Aug 9, 2004
