Ribbit is a Web-based telephony business, which includes a developer platform and plans for a voice service for consumers next year. The company has built a telephony switch that can connect Web-based phone calls to a variety of phone networks. Through the APIs, developers can add the ability to send and receive calls from a Web application and transcribe a voice message into text. Will it be more popular than Skype?
