It’s been a bad summer for blog writing, and this is just a quick update on some future plans. I will return to more regular updates when summer vacation ends and the children return to school.
In the meantime, though, I wanted to let people know that I will be at Fall VON and invite any readers to drop a line if they’d like to get together. I plan to attend the charity poker event (Sunday night I think?), I will miss Monday, but then I will be there Tues - Thurs.
Lavalife’s CEO Bruce Croxon is speaking on Wednesday at 5:45 in a session titled Social Applications and IP Communications
Lavalife has built and sustained a highly successful dating application on voice, web, and mobile platforms. Lavalife’s founder and CEO will talk about his view of the power of VoIP, and how to create customer value and make money in today’s current “race to zero” economics. He will share some details of his company’s successful transition to 100% IP technology (including VoIP and Skype), and talk about the value that this move has unlocked for the company’s business. He will present his vision of how IP communications has opened up a new era of application design and distribution for socially-oriented applications.
If the abstract sounds appealing, please let me know — I wrote it and I will be helping Bruce with his talk
