We have an orchard, almost a suburban farm really. And now something wonderful has happened…the blackberries are ripe!!

 Well as fingers went to keys and my VoIP
article was coming to life, (amidst
cussing, coffee drinking, my cats coming in the office then out of
the office, and a house full of teenagers savaging
for food and “something to do ’cause we’re so bored”), what
should show up in my RSS feed but this wonderful article by Jeff
Bertolucci of PC World entitled, “Net
Phones Grow Up” I really can’t
replicate the wonderful lab that PC World has - the budget for
testing at Beck’s Cafe is pretty much limited to tasting the latest
grind from Costa Rica, not testing the latest technology - but, I can
add my personal experience with VoIP.
My rationale for using VoIP was to make
business calls less expensive and, I admit, the cool factor was just
“there” for me. The wonderful thought of being tres chic
with my VoIP phone, bypassing the standard system, was alluring. Too
bad the hype hasn’t lived up to the facts. Still, VoIP phones, when
they’ve worked for me, have saved me alot of money. More on the “when
they’ve worked comment” later in this post.
