Computerworld’s Howard Wen reviewed four <free> online voicemail services that offer more a simple online voicemail box, and here is what he had to say about Ribbit Mobile:

“Compared to the webmail-like interface of Google Voice and to Phonebooth’s minimalist approach, Ribbit Mobile offers a more dynamic and colorful user experience. Its Web page is laid out like a virtual desktop. You can click on various widgets, such as a voice mail in-box and a phone dialing pad, and rearrange them to your liking. All of this is powered by Adobe Flash.

Ribbit Mobile’s strength is its Web phone calling, which lets you make and receive calls directly through the Web page, using your computer itself as a phone. Incoming calls can also be routed to your Web-phone accounts, including Skype, Google Talk or MSN Messenger.”
