Digital Telephony For Web Designers
Have you heard of Adhearsion? It bills itself as a new, open source way for you to create voice enabled applications. It’s a fully featured framework, done in Ruby with a comprehensive regression test suite, that aims to help web developers with no previous experience in telephony combine Web 2.0 with voice. Adhearsion uses the open source telephony-engine Asterisk for to handle low-level telephony details, but founder Jay Phillips points to Adhearsion’s ease of use and greater functionality as reasons for its superiority over Asterisk. Check out the screencast showing Phillips managing the Adhearsion source base with git and Github, showing the ease with which developers can contribute to Adhearsion.
