Video Interview: What Is The Future of Real-Time Communications?
Continue Reading: Video Interview: What Is The Future of Real-Time Communications?As I posted over on the Voxeo Talks blog recently, über-geek Chris Pirillo recently interviewed VoIP industry veteran Jeff Pulver and Voxeo CEO Jonathan Taylor on the topic of the future of real-time communications. It was a wide ranging interview talking about the history of communication apps, how VoIP has evolved, the role of standards, issues around bandwidth caps, the role of individuals and so much more. Chris explained a bit more on his site.. The video is now available on YouTube:
As a producer of video interviews, I was personally intrigued by Chris’ use of a Google+ “Hangout” to conduct the interview. I’m going to have to try it at some point.
Enjoy the video!

What Should You Consider When Choosing A Cloud Communications Platform? Join this June 22 session
Continue Reading: What Should You Consider When Choosing A Cloud Communications Platform? Join this June 22 sessionWhat factors should you consider when considering moving your communications applications to the “cloud”? What are the advantages of hosting in the cloud? The disadvantages? How can the cloud help you scale your applications? How can the cloud connect you to other communication channels beyond voice?Tomorrow, Wednesday, June 22, 2011, at 1:00pm US Eastern, I’ll be speaking in an online webinar on this topic called:
“Taking Customer Service to the Cloud“
The session will begin with industry analyst Daniel Hong from Ovum discussing what he found in his new 2011 research report, “Decision Matrix: Selecting a Provider of Cloud-based Speech Self-Service Solutions in North America.” I will then follow discussing what you need to consider when choosing a hosted provider (such as that of my employer, Voxeo). Next Debbie Diersch from Chrysalis will discuss factors to consider when choosing an application developer… and then we’ll throw it open to questions.
Daniel’s got some great data and Debbie and I are both aiming to provide some solid educational material (i.e. it’s not just sales pitches), so if the topic is of interest, the hour will be a good use of your time.
You can…
