Daily VoIP or Broadband Phone Service News & Updates.- It's the Law of the Playground: The big boys may not take over a game when they join in, but they can't help but change the rules. When it comes to consumer marketing, there are few bigger guys than AOL, which last week announced its free, IM-based VoIP service.
AIM Phoneline gives a free phone number to any instant messaging client--remember, IM is already free. Skype, by comparison, charges $4 per month for an inbound phone number. If you want to make outgoing calls on the AOL VoIP service, that'll cost a flat $14.95 per month.
The new AOL service is primarily a consumer play, but carriers are well aware that consumer tech has a way of sliding into enterprises, so this approach to VoIP service delivery is definitely worth watching.
