Editor's Notes
- #6: A software platform that facilitates the construction of Drupal sites that literally pick-up the phone, make calls, record messages, broadcast audio, run voice polls, and more . By integrating web, SMS, email, cellphones and dial-up technologies together, VoIP Drupal takes “community plumbing” beyond the Internet, facilitating the implementation of community outreach initiatives, phone-based polls, audio blogs and other systems in ways that would be extremely difficult otherwise
