Since people like to talk on the phone with other members, why pay for the long distance or the minutes or people who dont want to give out their phone number?
When you can add skype voice chat to vbulletin and integrate it. A FREE EF phone system

SkypeWeb allows the online status of Skype users to be viewed on web pages, and fits very nicely with vBulletin.

SkypeWeb integration will be a standard feature of the next release of vBulletin, but should you wish to gain SkypeWeb functionality on your vBulletin 3.5.3 board right away, you need simply to download the product XML file attached to this thread and install it through the product manager in your vBulletin Admin Control Panel.

Installing the next version of vBulletin when it is released will automatically remove this update product and replace it with SkypeWeb functionality from the default code and templates, so no further action will be required on your part.



George, the XML download file you need is at the bottom of the link here. I tried to hyperlink it but it did not work

nice idea

Yes with skype integrated in EF, people can skype with other members easily.
There is skype voicemail too. Its just a software that allows to voicechat through the internet.

You can call cellphones and landlines too with it with skypeout, costs 10$ for 120 minutes.

And you can integrate with your existing landline phone and either use a gamer head set or a cordless phone

One cordless phone that will allow you to call like regular or call through skype for free.

The skype is also not able to be wiretapped either for those worried about the current controversy of wiretapping US citizens.

All of that would be in your profile page like it says send a private message or email to a member, well it can say contact them on skype.

Itd be pretty cool option and super easy for them to set up.

People would have to download skype but it takes a few seconds to setup from www.skype.com
 
isnt anything ever good enough for you people? first it was paul revere, then morese code or whatever, then two cans and a string. the telephone, then the internet and now skiper, what next?

technology is going to consume all of you!

THE FUTURE IS NOW!!



Well, think of it man, people can reach you on skype and you dont have to worry about people calling you on your home phone or giving out your phone number so when BRR calls you, you dont freak out again lol

you 2 want to have boogie sex on George's dime...

Skype is free, wouldnt cost George a wooden nickel, just add value to the site and save money for members who pay long distance to talk to people
 
pintoca said:
if that thing has caller ID I want it, I need to filter my calls, you know...

It does and you can block members if you like, its very simple and user friendly.
Your phone will ring and it will say which member is calling you and you can choose to not answer or block them or set yourself as offline or not available.
THere are security features in the software for those who prefer not to voicechat with everyone or those afraid of talking on the phone
 
This technology is EVIL!!!!! imagine what will happen when it falls in the wrong hands: Coldblue calling everybody asking for K, needto organizing a confcall to discuss his issues with Angel, Hammy having a K meeting with the stakeholders, Sorearms and myself on the phone with Affirmative Action, Perk having multi-tranny phone-sechs!

Remember you can set it up so people can block others or simply not pick up. It clearly states who is calling you just like a personal message.
The only difference in the communication medium is that instead of typing, you are talking.
All of those things you listed can be done currently on PMs or Instant messaging, but for those who like to take a break from typing and talk then its no different.
I tell you, needto comes off much better on voice, I always imagined him stuttering in real life after reading his posts.

Its much simpler than you think, in addition, you can skype with family members or whoever has a computer, the internet and a gamer headset to virtually eliminate long distance phone calls.

Remember, there have been people here who have made threads saying they had a 2000$ phonebill calling Bigmann245 for example.
This has saved me tens of thousands of dollars in international calling and integrating here on EF can help teach people how to save lots of money and make it very convenient for other members to chat and communicate.

Its free for George to setup and you can opt out

Call Divert to voicemail

"Hi this is Ricaldo el Grande, aka Big Rick Rock, Pintoca is kinda busy right now, may I take your message?"

No, thats a dual use cordless phone that you connect to both your computer and your phone line so you can toggle between the phone services. Its a special phone.
You can use a gamer headset (headphones and mic) and plug into your computer to talk.
My pocketpc/cellphone has a wifi internal modem so I have a dual use cellphone and skype internet calling.
So when I talk to Bubbles its like Im walking around talking on my cellphone, only free.
The easiest, cheapest way would be a gamer headset that plugs into computer for people. The cordless phone option would be for someone that likes to talk on the phone once they get more contacts online. Rather than sit at the computer with headset on, they could wander with a cordless phone and use the internet for long distance calling. Plus you can create multiple accounts and protect privacy with this


Skype is a free technology, it would not cost George anything. I have included a link for him to download it and install. When vbulletin 4.0 comes out and they upgrade it will automatically be in it.

This would really be something that can be done in a few minutes on his end and its free

Great Post!

Thanks, I mentioned it to George a few months ago and he said it was an excellent idea too and he'd look into it. I am not sure what version of Vbulletin they are running but itd be a great feature. I wouldnt mind skyping with people but hesitant on giving out a phone number.

I love Skype, I wish more people knew of it. THere are few limitations, you can talk to anyone in the world for free.
There are excellent products to help out too.
http://us.accessories.skype.com/direct/skypeusa/accessoriesList.jsp?acctype=8

There is a phone wizard that for 50$ bucks makes your regular phones skype ready, there is a phone call center so you can call and connect from any phone to your skype system.

You can call from a wifi cafe, in Portland the whole downtown is free wifi service.

There is so much cool stuff to do with skype, no contracts, no fees, nothing but a simple one minute download and pick a username(s), all free.

Literally never have to worry about a large long distance bill again, most people have computers nowadays and highspeed internet so why pay to use the phone companies network? I screwed up on international calling on my cellphone and said never again after I got that bill, I still use my cellphone but the one I bought had skype preloaded on the system. This is the coolest thing since sliced white bread
 
Hopefully one of the Big Three sees this, its already on the second page
 
Been looking at it already. The "just drop it in" bit is a little exaggerated due to all the customization we've done here but yeah, I like Skype plenty.
