PeerMe
PeerMe, which is a California-based startup, released the beta version of its VoIP client in the third week of September 2005. The company has also announced collaboration with Ameba, which is a major blog aggregator from Japan. The two have combined to release Ameba PeerMe. PeerMe is completely focused on providing peer-to-peer service at present; it may venture into selling of connect time to PSTNs.
According to Tom Lasater, founder and CEO of PeerMe, the service is accessible from any Wi-Fi hotspot in the world and should really come into its own when mobiles get equipped with high-speed Internet connectivity. The company plans to use free voice service to attract customers to a number of its e-commerce ventures, such as the PeerMe Game channel, which uses technology developed by Boonty.
