How do we select one?

I've read the whole thread, and the technical question is not a hard
thing. But selecting one, having to follow it regarding quality of
service, cost, interoperability etc. is a whole new thing for us and not
a minor task as putting an ad on the web site is.

  distracting (although reminiscent of a scene from Harry Potter).
 
 I do not know if it can activate a CSS3 animation, though I believe
 that it can if it did with CSS before.
 
 I recall seeing, a few years ago, a 300x300 image which started to
 move like a cube inside a screen on mouse-over (Javascript was
 disabled). When I was looking in the code of the page I have seen
 that it was a 300x1800 image which had 6 different squares with 6
 different poses of that square. It was a cool trick which didn't
 require high load of CPU.
 
 I dislike Javascript because it can detect my mouse cursor and what I
 am copying, selecting etc.
 
 Maybe we would be able to get help on how to do reproduce this, from
 users of http://userstyles.org/ or any other CSS discussion board.
 
This is newer than the example of the 300x300 animated cube
http://www.webkit.org/blog/138/css-animation/
Still, the cube is something else.

Dear Admins

Please put advertisements related to SIP technology (SIP telephones or
SIP server providers (e.g. Diamondcard) etc.) on Ekiga.org
...with contracts, of course, not just ads for fun :-P

Please use YOUR OWN advertisement platform/server (controlled
exclusively by you) like OpenX.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpadsnew/
http://www.openx.com/

OpenX (phpAdsNew) is an open-source ad server, with an integrated
banner management interface and tracking system for gathering
statistics. With OpenX you can easily rotate paid banners and your own
in-house advertisements.


I believe that advertisements, of trusted good (e.g. SIP telephones, or
businesses that can install SIP to land line gateways) and service
providers (e.g. SIP to land line) will increase the popularity of the
SIP technology and the use Ekiga. The more various uses we will be
reading about, the more SIP users are going to be.

Important note: In order to prevent future embarrassment and joylessness
with pay services (e.g. someone was paying for Diamondcard and Ekiga
did not always operated well), please suggest other SIP clients (one or
two) in case Ekiga is not working well, or, as you do here in the
mailing lists, asking from the users to test Ekiga with a free ekiga.net
account and only after use pay services.
I do believe that this should be proposed by the service providers, not
by the Ekiga staff.

Sounds a good idea.
Will any funds generated from the ads go to help fund ekiga in some way -
if so how?

I think the community should know what's happening if there is money
involved - just to keep things 'open source'

Re: [Ekiga-list] Advertisements on Ekiga.org with OpenX?

2012-01-30 Thread Genghis Khan
SIP Gateways: I am very impressed with the SIP gateways like the toll
free which you provide to us and I think that many people, if only they
knew, are interested in establishing such gateways for their own
telephone lines, with SIP hardware phone and exchange permissions with
friends abroad in order to reduce their phone bills.

THIS you can do with SIP, which Ekiga supports, NOT with Skype.
People need to understand that Microsoft had bought the number of the
users that are bound to the shackles of Skype, not the technology which
seem to be heading to open source one like SIP and XMPP, and yet still
limited to the domains and servers of Skype.

I really like targeted ads, PROVIDED they do not pop up, pop-over or 
use flash (gif/png animation is ok).  Nice well-behaved targeted banner 
ads keep me informed of services available for the technology I am 
reading about.  It is ok to pop-up and even use sound when you click on 
an ad.


Another possibility to consider: review forums for SIP related 
services.  Or would that be too likely to make a dissed company sue?
