Its not often that a European start up (UK) starts making some noise in the USA espcially considering this is primarily based on using SMS. Spinvox is a realtively unique service (at least by US standards) which translates voicemail to text and then sends a message thru by SMS and email to your computer.
Lets face it when you are in a meeting no matter how boring it is there are few of us who would find it acceptable to take a call. However the send/receive button is allluringly present on a laptop usually faced towards us as we are obviously need it to make important notes on our collegues presentation.
Nice idea, but oddly I had never heard of Spinvox before and immediately decided i should take it out for a test spin only to find out it wasnt even available on the European continent. Apparantly I may have missed something here but I did not think that the Americans had really caught on to text messaging….

Since we have seen the first TTS integrated into various online campaigns last year it may not be bad to further explore creativity with speech synthesis for interactive campaigns.
