New Phono “Callme Button” Demo Shows Use of Calling Directly from Web Browser

Hot on the heels of the new release of the PhonoSDK I wrote about last week, Dave Hoff over in Voxeo Labs came out with a new “Callme Button” demo that’s very cool. As he describes in his blog post on the Phono blog, adding a “call me” button to a website is now as simple as adding this snippet of JavaScript to your web page:

$("body").append(
   $("<div/>")
    .css("width","210px")
    .callme({
      apiKey: "C17D167F-09C6-4E4C-A3DD-2025D48BA243",
      numberToDial: "8007773456",
      buttonTextReady: "1-800-777-FILM",
      slideOpen:true
    })
  )

There is a Callme “demo page” online at:

That shows how you could create a button with or without a dialpad and in various themes:

The source code is naturally there for you to play with if you want to do so.

Cool stuff!
