Benefits of technology

[0015]The invention involves a method for downloading a communication application onto a communication device. Once downloaded, the communication application is configured to create a user interface appearing within one or more web pages generated by a web browser running on the communication device. The communication enables the user to engage in voice conversations in (i) a real-time mode or (ii) a time-shifted mode and provides the ability to seamless transition the conver

Problems solved by technology

The called party can pick up the phone while the caller is leaving a message, which causes most answering machines to stop recording the message.

If the user does not hear the message, for whatever reason, the message is irretrievably lost.
These systems, however, typically do not record
