VOIP services target both individual users and business entities. Though these two groups may have different needs and preferences, VOIP can be a solution to their telecommunication needs. As more and more people are seeing VOIP as a feasible alternative to traditional telephone lines, the industry continues to grow and prosper despite the plunging economic situations in different countries all over the world.

Sometimes, we become too focused on the United States and what is going on here. We can’t really be blamed – after all, this country is one of the leading countries in the world (if not the leading). Many developments and innovations start in the U.S. and the news covers a lot of happenings in the nation and disseminates the information to the rest of the world.

Everything seems to be going mobile these days – and why not? With the fast pace of life that most of us are living, it is just right to have the proper tools to continue with our daily tasks wherever we may be. I was just thinking about the people I see on my way to work everyday. Every where I look, I see people fiddling with their mobile phones, their PDAs, their notebooks, etc. Our society has indeed become a mobile one – so what does this have to do with VOIP?

If you are an Asterisk fan boy (or girl, for that matter), then chances are that you have a particular affinity for various kinds of gadgets as well. If so, here is another toy that you can add to your ever growing collection of techie stuff – an Asterisk USB hub. You may already have an Asterisk shirt (or two), you may even have a couple of Digium shirts. I am sure you have at least one Asterisk book or even a mug, but I think this toy will beat them all!

One of the biggest things that VOIP has going for it is the fact that is costs way cheaper than traditional telephony and one of the main reasons for this low cost is the fact that VOIP services are not subject to the same taxes and charges that traditional telecommunications providers are. So what happens if VOIP providers become taxed? In Los Angeles, California, it seems that they are taking this route. Steve Stanek writes in Heartland:
Los Angeles voters have imposed a 9 percent tax on Internet phone calls, known as VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol). VoIP calls had been tax-free in the city. Voters also enacted a 1 percentage point reduction in the tax on all other phone calls, from 10 percent to 9 percent. Most phone calls are still made over traditional wireline or wireless phones, but Internet phone service is a rapidly growing segment of the telephone market.
