Voxeo Developers Corner

By way of a posting to our Facebook Page, I learned of a set of slides from Pavel Růžička, a programmer/analyst with T-Mobile Czech Republic on the topic of converting an existing voice app into a multi-channel app using Voxeo VoiceObjects. In his deck, he walks through why you might want to create a multi-channel application, then dives into some VO screenshots (offering tips along the way) and then concludes with a number of things to think about and some references.

Now, in his particular case, the text channel he is using is USSD, a channel really only available to mobile service providers, but the ideas he presents here are certainly applicable to other text-based channels as well.

Thanks, Pavel, for putting together this slide deck – and thanks for letting us know about it!

As part of our 100% Uptime Guarantee for Text Messaging we announced earlier this week, I posted a short video showing the process:

If you haven’t tried it out yourself, turning an existing voice application into a text messaging application is literally just one radio button on a form… try it!

P.S. If you want to try it out yourself but don’t yet have an Evolution account, just head over to evolution.voxeo.com. Accounts are free for development use… as are the phone numbers and the inbound/outbound text messaging.
