v WebRTC is a peer to peer technology but servers are needed
v To set up the connection between peers

v Place calls from a web browser to a plain old telephone
v Implemented in C

v WebRTC is not implemented in all browsers
v Chrome, Firefox, Opera
v IE, Safari and others missing
v Adobe Flash plugin helps a lot here
