Systems and techniqes for identifying a participant in a teleconference allow other participants at remote locations to be informed of the identify of a current speaker. A currently speaking participant is identified in a teleconference conducted using a connection on a circuit-switched network, and a signal indicating an identifier of the currently speaking participant is transmitted over the connection on the circuit-switched network. The signal is received, and the identifier of the currently speaking participant is displayed at a participating location. The displayed identifier is determined based on the indication in the signal.
