Heading off to Florida tomorrow morning for Internet Telephony Expo and a Voxeo visit
Continue Reading: Heading off to Florida tomorrow morning for Internet Telephony Expo and a Voxeo visitI haven’t really written any blog posts on any of my blogs today (until this one) largely because I’ve been straight out trying to get everything tied up before flying out tomorrow morning down to Orlando, Florida. Once in Orlando, I’ll be driving down to Miami Beach tomorrow afternoon/evening to speak at Internet Telephony Expo on Thursday, go to a SIP Forum meeting on Friday and then drive back up to Orlando to spend some time at the Voxeo office. I’ll be in Orlando over the weekend and then there through next Wednesday, January 30th.I am very much looking forward to trying out Jet Blue‘s new direct, nonstop service between Burlington, Vermont, and Orlando tomorrow. Flight leaves at 8:20 in the morning and arrives in Orlando at 11:50am. I am looking forward to NOT having to make a stop in JFK or any of the other hub airports.

Introducing “Speaking of Standards”, a new Voxeo blog about industry standards, IETF, W3C, SIP Forum, etc.
Continue Reading: Introducing “Speaking of Standards”, a new Voxeo blog about industry standards, IETF, W3C, SIP Forum, etc.A large part of why I have NOT been writing here all that much in the past few weeks is that I’ve been busy in my new role with Voxeo working on a corporate blog portal. I’ve been covering a bit of that odyssey over on my Disruptive Conversations blog as well as in my weekly reports into the For Immediate Release podcast. It’s been a great amount of work but also a lot of fun – I’ve been very lucky to have a colleague who does amazing things with CSS and graphics, and so the sites look a whole lot better than they would if I were left to my own devices.
I’m very pleased to say, now, that we’ve reached the point where I’m willing to link to our work and talk a bit about what we are doing. The main blog portal is the predictable “blogs.voxeo.com” but the weblog that we’re really starting to use and could be of interest to readers of this blog is our “Speaking of Standards” blog found at:

I’ve obviously been very occasionally writing here about standards and some of that may continue, but I expect most of…

I’ll be out in Vancouver Dec 2-7 for the 70th meeting of the IETF.
Continue Reading: I’ll be out in Vancouver Dec 2-7 for the 70th meeting of the IETF.Just confirmed travel plans today – I will be heading out to the 70th meeting of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, from December 2-7. If any readers will be out there (either for the IETF or in Vancouver in general), please do drop a note and let me know. This will be my first meeting in my new role with Voxeo and I’m very much looking forward to renewing old acquaintances and also getting more directly involved with the work of the IETF.

My new employer is……….
Continue Reading: My new employer is……….So here’s the story… after my layoff from Mitel and the corresponding job hunt, I became very convinced that I should go down the consultant/analyst route. I had purchased equipment, started setting up the legal side of things and was in serious discussions with several others about allying (and aligning) myself with their own efforts. All looked good and I was excited to get going.
Then I got this email from a CEO of a company I’d never really heard of who said he’d found my blog posts and that it so happened that they were looking for someone doing essentially the roles that I outlined in one of my posts. As they were growing strongly they were looking to expand their “Office of the CTO” and add to their capabilities. I looked at their website and initially wasn’t too sure about what I saw. But as I dug in a bit more I was pretty blown away by what I started to see… and got back in touch.
It turns out that there’s this company based in Orlando, Florida, whose VoIP application platform is used by one of the world’s largest telecom vendors, two of the worlds largest software…
