This page is given over to second life developer tools of all sorts.

Voice
- Second Talk brings Skype voip to SL. Currently (Jan 07) in beta. According to the documentation, whenever you're in range of others wearing the Second Talk headset (and presumably not anywhere set no-script), you'll be prompted to see if you want to talk to them. You'll need a skype account to make this all work, and instructions on plugging your skype details into the headset are provided with the instruction card. Second Talk are looking into integrating with the open source client. It will support up to 10 users in voice chat.
- Vivox another voice chat system in SL, available as one-to-one calls or as a mic'd environment with up to 5 participants. It also allows calls from SL to RL (Real Life).
