Following last week’s Dow Jones report, T-Mobile has re-released Bobsled on Facebook today. Bobsled was taken off of Facebook nearly a week after it launched because it could have been mistaken for a feature created by Facebook. Bobsled used to be accessed from the chat list on Facebook by clicking a green phone icon next to a friend’s name. The new Bobsled is clearly a third-party application. T-Mobile also places a disclaimer on the Bobsled website that says,”The Bobsled for Facebook application is not developed or endorsed by Facebook.”

Last week T-Mobile, using Vivox’s VoiceEverywhere, service released an application on Facebook called Bobsled. Bobsled allowed users to make voice calls on Facebook for free. Only one individual needed to have Bobsled authorized in order for calls to take place. It was certainly a neat feature, but you may have noticed that Bobsled is no longer working on Facebook.

Voice chat is going to be available through Facebook in the upcoming weeks provided by the company Vivox. Vivox already provides online voice services to other sites like Second Life and will now add Facebook functionality. Vivox claims it will give users the chance to have high quality voice conversations with their Facebook friends either more »
