Cool Vonage & Mac Trick!!

If, like me, you're a Vonage and Mac user at home, here's a cool tip I found this week. By setting up some simple AppleScript as an plugin for your Address Book, you can basically "click-to-call" anyone in your address book from your Vonage line.

All the instructions are at the MacOSX Hints website and it took me all of 10 mins to set it up.

So now I can do this (right click on any number in my address book)!



And my home Vonage line rings automatically and I pick it up to hear the other side ringing!

Now, if I could only get it to work with a calling card service... basically dial a really long number with the ability to program a pause. One can always keep wishing :)

Vonage lets you use "Click2Call" anyway you want. More details here.
