Yahoo Inks VoIP Peering and Termination Deal

Thanks for returning. You're a very smart person.

If Yahoo is getting out of the Voice game, then why are they inking deals with VoIP Peering and Termination providers? Yahoo! and VSNL announced today a deal that according to Michel Guyot, President of Global Voice Services, VSNL International is a Voice over IP peering agreement with Yahoo; that is voice-linked services.

“It makes our reciprocal network - Yahoo network and VSNL Teleglobe network - inter-operable with a diverse list of voice equipment.”

From the looks of this, the recent re-organization at Yahoo! has not yet effected the Yahoo! voice group. If anything, I think we are going to see even more from Yahoo! on the voice front in the very near future.
