JANET Talk Documentation

JANETtalk is a new service which is going through an initial trial period before it's rolled out across the nation. It is a free product to the FE/HE education sectors and should prove popular.

JANETtalk is hoped not only to provide a voice communication service but data/desktop sharing and video conferencing in a similar way that Skype does at present.
