Bridging the digital divide between the rural and the urban masses may be the ambitious slogan of the Department of Telecommunication. But, some small software companies are innovating ways to bridge the last mile, making life easier for the common man.
A Chennai-based software company, Voice Snap, has unveiled a simple-to-use software that allows even the non-computer savvy to use computers to send and receive unlimited voice messages over the Internet.
VS2 has been specifically designed keeping in mind the elderly and non-computer literate, who want to keep in touch with their wards abroad, says its chief architect Ganesh Padmanabhan, a Physics graduate from Loyola College.
The software is available as free download at www.voicesnap.com
