Since its inception, Packetizer has been the one stop shop for all things VoIP. The extensive library of information contained within Packetizer's web pages has been a plentiful source of information on anything and everything VoIP.

Packetizer is a community of individuals all over the world and are still leading efforts to increase functionality of voice and video conferencing capabilities.

That said, we are also engineers and we enjoy dabbling in other areas. In the Packetizer Labs area, you will find information on the various projects, useful or otherwise, that Packetizer has published for the world to enjoy.

VoIP Research

Packetizer and the community of software engineers around the world are still active engaged in VoIP and videoconferencing research and development. We invite you to see what we are doing and encourage you to participate!

Other Cool Stuff

AES Crypt

We created a very cool program called AES Crypt, which allows you to encrypt and decrypt files using 256-bit AES encryption, either from Windows or from Linux.

Calendar

This little Perl script will mimic the behavior of the 'calendar' program that was found on older AT&T UNIX systems. It has appeared on many flavors of UNIX, but we are not aware of such a tool for Linux.

Cambridge Obfuscator

Here's something cool: the Cambridge Obfuscator. You can paste a paragraph full of text into the window and the program will follow simple rules to scramble the letters in the middle of words and, amazingly, the words are still readable.

Character Converter

We have another script that will convert characters into hexadecimal, showing both the UTF-8 and Unicode value for each character.

Hide Email Address

We also have a little script that you can use to help hide your e-mail address when you embed it in a web page. It will provide two ways to hide your e-mail address to make it more difficult for bots to retrive it.

PGP Primer

Oh, before we created AES Crypt, we used to use PGP. We still consider that a great software program and wrote a PGP Primer that might be useful.

Towers of Hanoi,
Sierpinski's Triangle

Algorithms are interesting. Some are complex and some are trivial. Sometimes it is the ones that are most trivial that are the most interesting. We have two good examples that one might consider great classics. One is the Towers of Hanoi and the other is Sierpinski's Triangle.

Web Services

From time to time, we come up with some kind of interesting web service that you can utilize from over the web. You can find the current web services we have implemented at services.packetizer.com.
