TeamTalk allows you to talk with your friends and colleagues using the internet or your local area network as audio carrier. TeamTalk is available for desktop PCs running Windows and for Windows-based Pocket PCs.

Unlike many other internet voice conferencing applications (or internet phones) TeamTalk allows any number of people to participate in a conversation and can use channels to organize conversations. Having numerous people in a conversation sets high demands to your network connection's capabilities but TeamTalk features a variety of configuration options which allows you to select the audio quality that best fits your connection speed.

The primary goal of TeamTalk is to provide a conversation with high quality sound and minimum transmission delay so that it becomes as close to real-time conversation as possible.

If you cannot set up a server yourself you can instead use dedicated servers. You can connect to a server hosted by this website by pressing here. Note that it requires TeamTalk 3.0. You can also connect to this TeamTalk 3.0 server which is running on a 100 MBit connection in London.

We classify true VoIP and SIP applications as those which can be interfaced with your network using telephone adapters. Team Talk does not meet this classification but it appears to be a great free download. You can get it here. The link will open in a new window. A screenshot is here
