VirtualPhoneLine is Not Complacent vs Skype IN

Browsing Youtube on the weekends is a favorite past time, and one of my favorite topics is what's up with Skype? In this case, what is not up with Skype.

Don't get me wrong. Skype is a beauty with Skype to Skype calls sounding like HD and great features like video and screen sharing, but the Skype IN has got to improve.

Skype Maxico or Skype In Maxico.. Or may be I should say Skype Pakistan or, more than 23 other countries then I found under my former Skype plan.

For other reasons I dropped my Skype Maxico phone number, so imagine my surprise when I found Skype launched , 65$ an year for formal Mexico phone number.

I supposed to 12$ an year a company that offers me 12$ an year a Mexico phone number, with more area code and choices.

I don't want to sound like, I am complaining about Skype.

I think Skype and Skype IN are great products, just because I am a formal customer of Skype In does not mean I left unhappy customer, and Yes times indeed have changed and Skype and Skype IN .

Now, I am not against saying a buck as much as anybody and see how many more countries Virtualphoneline.com offers nearly twice as many countries as Skype.

Be Social and Local via Virtual Phone Line Audio Blogging

Last month Virtual Phone Line announced its Public Profile Page with Web Dialer feature. "VPL" began as a call diversion service but is now one of the web's most popular social media tools. Today, Super Technologies, Inc., who created and run the Virtual Phone Line service reveals the new empowering personal and business tool of audio blogging.


VPL users can login to their personal portals on Virtualphoneline.com and manage their account with integration to Facebook; ring to including Skype, SIP, IAX2, PSTN, FWD, Google Gizmo5, MSN IM, Yahoo IM, GoogleTalk, or Truphone; as well as other standard and premium features. Audio blogging is the newest!

"I use my VPL public profile, web dialer, and voicemail features as a method to let my parents back home in Australia know how I am doing in my Masters studies while in UK. My Australia Virtual Phone Line number is what my parents in Australia, my family all over the world in Pakistan, Japan, Mexico and USA, and I call once per day through the web dialer to leave a message of 'What's up!' to each other. I plan to use the content to write a book someday," says Virtual Phone Line user Arinya Khan.

Is that cool, or what? You rock, Arinya!

Another user of Virtual Phone Line gives a short demo on Youtube on the VPL audio blogging feature.
Customers click on 'Profile" once logged in to Virtual Phone Line and scroll to the General Settings area. They choose whether or not they want to enable their public profile and decide what they are willing to share publicly about themselves such as their picture, their location, their Virtual Phone Line numbers, voicemail enabling, and web dialer. Two URLs now belong to the customer: Public Profile page and Audio Blog page.
Where customers select "voicemails" in the general settings, short recorded audios can be left by the customer or anyone with access to their web dialer on the customer's public profile page. The voicemails then become an audio blog of reminders, holiday greetings, quotes of the day, polls, and more.
Virtual Phone Line is a service that enables users to be local and to be social. The sign up page is at http://www.virtualphoneline.com/signup.

Native-American Casinos Struggle Beat by Virtual Phone Line

In 2008, the Indian Casino Directory showed there were twenty-six Native-American Indian casinos in the state of Washington, USA. In the past two years, twenty have defaulted. W. Ron Allen, chairman of the Washington Indian Gaming Commission, told the Seattle Times, "You didn't have to think, you could just go ahead and implement a marketing plan because it sounded good, you didn't have to question it or challenge it."

Marketers among Native-American casinos and in every industry that is interested in casinos are rushing to be social in an age where users drive business and "same as it ever was" does not work anymore. Get on Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin and get a Virtual Phone Line.

Be social and be local to those you need and who need you.
