I’m not one to get nervous. Especially over something as passive as a trade show.
Yet there I sat on my flight to Miami. Worrying what I would find at the Internet Telephony Conference & Expo.
How many exhibitors would actually be in attendance? What would the foot traffic be like? Who’s business would I hear was on the verge of falling off the cliff?
You might think that I was a bit heightened in my worrying – but the who, what, where, when and why of the Internet Telephony Conference & Expo serves as a fantastic gauge of the health of the VoIP industry.
And what did I find?

I think Sangoma has something here with their new B600 series of telephony cards.
Last month I had the chance to learn more about the product when I was up in Markham last month and I have to say that the premise behind the series is spot-on. Read the rest of this entry »

Yes, it has been year already.
Earlier today, Doug Mahoney over at Fierce VoIP announced this year’s Fierce 15, a list of 15 VoIP companies blazing a trail within the industry. On the list, were a couple of companies that, to me, have been standouts this year.
- Fonolo – Such a great idea and tool. I can’t believe someone hasn’t scooped them up yet.
- Ifbyphone – As someone who is responsible for online commerce, the tools and resources they have launched this year are awesome.
- Truphone – Their iPhone application and more recently their BlackBerry application are great and have opened them up to two huge market segments.
Of course, kudos to all of the companies on the list (and to Andy Abramson for having three clients on the list…who just happen to be my favs as well). Keep-on innovating!

Yes – I think you are smart.
No seriously – I have talked to many of you who are participants here – you are really smart.
Isn’t it about time you got off of your duff and told the world about the distruption you are causing in the intersection of telecommunications and IP communications?

…it seems that they have restored VoIP to Microsoft Live Messenger. Honestly, I didn’t know it was gone. I use it as an “IM” at the office – but only for internal usage (and I have a phone to call my colleagues). To no one’s surprise they are offering below sea level pricing on outbound calling – so this is really a non-story right?
Well – let’s speculate for a second.

Today Doug Mahoney at FierceVoIP did an awesome interview with Digium CEO Danny Windham on Digium, SwitchVox and the future (Get the full thing here). During the interview Danny revealed some pretty pertinent facts about where Digium and SwitchVox and their next focus – building out their channel. To me this is a smart – and exciting focus, as it will further the proliferation of Digium’s cornerstones – Asterisk and SwitchVox – into the mainstream SMB sector.
