CEBU CITY, Philippines — A group of college students in Cebu has developed an application that allows mobile phone users whose phones can access the Internet to call a person registered in the application site’s database.

naka try naka ani bro? murag nindot sad pero wala pako kasabot, hehehe

[bowee]

murag VOIP-like app diay ni brad?

sort of like skype....pro it miight get lash at because of the fact that this as you say..collect phone numbers and stores it on its database...

Security risk:
what guarantee can the user get that the numbers he /she posted on the website can't be hack by other malicious people? there are no 100% guarantee to be safe and secured once you posted some private informations on the internet.... sooner or later.. it's bound to be compromise jud...

The devs are worth praising though....

ganahan ta ko mangutana, if we register on spelldial, wa na gamit atong phonebook sa phone?

The catch, according to SpellDial lead creator Jose Albert Padin, is that the caller need not memorize the person’s number, but just the username of the person being called. Padin said it is often easier to memorize a person’s name than his or her mobile phone number.

it is easier to dial names, but my phonebook has names.
I'm just confused with this application..

but I think this one is cool though..

@bowee, depende pud sa ilang server gi-gamit..
kung nag Linux sila + encrypted ang mga sensitive information, then ok ilang security..

nindot paminawn kay as they said, lisod i-memorize ang numbers sa mga tao, whereas kung names, or maskin ID's man lang, sayon ra.. that way, kung mawala imong phone or ma-erase imong contacts, sayon nalang i-retrieve ang number sa imong ganahan tawagan.. i-input ra nimo ang username and voila! dial na..

Now, akong sabot na sa ilang software is that, the web is now an extension of our mobilephone where we can use it as well to dial out to anyone..

anyways, it still a VOIP style phone.. ^_^ nice gihapon..
