Welcome to Telephony’s Telephony 2.0 Weblog.
What’s this all about?
Here’s a handy buzzphrase list to get a sense of what we’re talking about here: Web 2.0; mashups; social networks; SOA; IMS; cloud OS; Google / Yahoo / Amazon as hybrid datacenter / communications / content providers; gadgets; widgets; telco 2.0 biz models; competition; unbundling; cost-based pricing; etc. etc…
Basically, as we say in the tagline, the intersection of Web 2.0-style technologies and services; IP communications and its impact on the traditional PSTN telephony market; and the emergence of a whole slew of new competitors, including more competition-minded telcos.
If you are tracking these topics — and who in the traditional telecom industry isn’t — consider this blog a place to track the latest trends, keep up with breaking news and talk with your peers about these important topics.
Thanks for joining me.
