Where is VoIP Heading - Conversation Tonight

The VoIP is not dead discussion tonight moves to Calliflower. You can join at 6:00 PST.  Alec Saunders advocates "open communications". As I wrote the other day. It's about the "Exchange" and Alec makes this point by talking about "arbitrage". Dave Michels then left a comment on my post which took me to his blog. You should read "PBX Needs to Change (or Die)" which I thinks a great piece which points back to the mobile. Om remains skeptical and thinks VoIP is full of marginal ideas. I'm not so sure. Yusuf Motowala has just launched VoicePHP (Om already looked at it more deeply). While Andy identifies a great group of people in his "Scouting Report" and I really appreciated being one of those mentioned! The game, the discussion and the desire to have an "impact" remains with this group. After a few years beginning to wonder where  "classic blogging" went the recent set of blogs around VoIP (many not mentioned above) just shows the value created when people start to share their outlooks, ideas, and build on what others are saying. If we keep it up… then the conversation will be renewed and grow. I'd like to reinforce that "blogging" is better than "lists" from my perspective as it's "open" although I believe this actually traces to some lists and thus the hunger for better conversations around VoIP that has fueled the latest posts.
