IVR Technologies, a company that specializes in SIP server and RADIUS billing replacement solutions, announced Tuesday that its voice calling application for Facebook (News - Alert), callme, is now available for use with mobile phones.

 

Callme, an application offered in partnership with Global Telelinks and based on IVR Technologies’ Talking SIP platform, allows Facebook users to make free voice calls with other members of the social network without revealing their phone number. Now, the application’s benefits have been extended for use with mobile phones.

 

Here’s how mobile callme works: user loads callme on his or her Facebook profile page, then points a mobile browser to http://m.facebook.com; this page requires login, after which the user can initiate a call on the mobile phone with any friend who also has callme installed.

 

In this way, callme provides users with a way to avoid long distance cell phone charges (although inbound calling minute charges may apply). As with non-mobile usage of callme, calls are sent over Global Telelinks’ next-generation voice networks.
