Israeli computer fans were first to make computer-to-computer voice connections back in 1995. That same year, the technology was further developed into a software package called Net Telephone Software.

The software digitised and compressed audio signals before sending them over the Net. These voice connections only took place between PCs provided with the software.

Phone-to-phone connections still needed a PC to initiate the call, but once the link was established, callers could employ a standard phone set.

That Was Then -- This Is Now.
