Tringme On GoogleTalk, Globally

If you have not yet signed up, I think now you have another reason to join TringMe. TringMe allows you to make calls from Google Talk (Gtalk), or Googletalk (and to some gooletalk ;) ). Gtalk doesn't support making phone calls natively, basically you can't dial anyone from within Gtalk. Enter Tringme, if you already have Gtalk installed, then making a call to any phone or SIP URI from Gtalk is as simple as sending a message using Gtalk. Calls made from Gtalk can be terminated on all devices that TringMe currently supports.
Is that sweet or what? Ok here how it really works, straight from TringMe blog;

"To make a call, all you need to do is send a message to tringme@gmail.com from Gtalk. Please note that you would have added TringMe to the list of friends in Gtalk already.

• To make a call to a number, merely send a message - call <number> - to tringme@gmail.com. For e.g. call 18585551212 would initiate a call to 1-858-555-1212.
• You can also call other TringMe users by merely using their email address. For e.g., call abc@xyz.com would connect user abc@xyz.com to whatever destination the user has chosen to terminate upon.
• You can reach more than 40 million worldwide SIP users using Gtalk just by typing their SIP URI. For e.g call greg@somesipserver.com will connect you to Greg's SIP server.

In all cases, you will get an inbound call from TringMe and once you answer, the call to the intended party will be initiated. This also opens a new way for developers to integrate core TringMe functionalities using Google or Jabber APIs."

Although it required invites to join TringMe, I just signed up today without any problems at TringMe site. I certainly will be writing more about TringMe, once I had a good taste of it.
