APRIL - US Child Abuse Prevention Month
Web Presence

Childhood is a formative time, any abuse can have devastating long-term effects on young lives. View the U.S. President's 2007 Proclamation to see details.

In concert with this topic, an INTERNATIONAL effort exists to bring awareness to a particularly dangerous "mental / emotional" form of child abuse known as Parental Alienation.

Apr 25th is known as PAAD - Parental Alienation Awareness Day, in many US states and around the world. Right now our own CO Governor Ritter is considering issuing Proclamation for 2008.

Creative Uses of VoIP

A WEB Widget (CALL-ME button) can be used for after-hours Get Help calls. A company web site owner can program this button to call ANY phone they desire - even ring multiple phones at one time. All without the caller having to dial or even know what number was dialed - TRY IT !

.

Great for handling "rotating schedule" support or after- hours mobile security. The button can be programmed to ring a home phone, cell phone or any contracted security personnel office. The number can be changed at any time.

Dear Tom,

Some call them "widgets," some call them "gadgets" but in the end, they're really the same thing: small computer programs (applets) that run on your PC desktop or on a web page. Microsoft chose to introduce and include Gadgets as part of their new VISTA operating system - however WEB Widgets were around prior to that. While 100's of widgets exist I'm only going to talk about one type known as CLICK TO CALL..

The one shown below is called an online business card - it enables friends, family or colleagues to simply enter in their number to get a hold of you. Click-to-call is very similar to the old days of dialing "0" on a telephone and having a live operator assist you by making the connection for a "person to person collect" call. Benefits are:

  • the person browsing the web page can be at any phone
  • their is no charge or cost to the person making the call
  • the phone number of the called party remains private
  • this can happen at any time of day from any location
  • >> TRY IT BY USING THE WIDGET SHOWN BELOW <<

V_me_card_header_background_thin
I must Call Home ....
& do it FREE from any phone !
Enter Your Phone Number:

( 1 + area code + number )
V_me_card_footer_background_thin

"I must call home.... and do it FREE from any phone." is just one example of how this type of function could be used. In this case, you could be near any phone at all and make a NO COST call back to your house or main office from a web page.

This WIDGET is currently only in alpha test mode by the VONAGE / VoIP service company. It is being designed for inclusion in email signatures as well as web pages. The call is actually charged to your Vonage VoIP account - but since you get unlimited long distance the call is effectively FREE. Widgets like this have many types of applications, it's just a matter of using one's imagination to identify the possibilities.

Best Regards, TOM
