I’m happy to announce that I’ve become a regular contributor to Fierce VoIP. Every other week, I’ll be writing a column about Telco 2.0. I’m very happy to be a member of the fierce family, and I’m looking forward to exploring all those thorny Web 2.0 issues with all of their readers.
My first column was published today called “Congratulate Failure”. The point of the article is to question our perceptions of risk as viewed through the recent demise of Jangl. My contention is that the greatest risk we face as an industry is to sit back and wait for the smoke to clear. Instead, we ought to be asking ourselves how we can fail faster and cheaper, bringing on a future where voice enablement is no longer unique or surprising.
Thank you to all for joining me in the journey. Even though I only write about the things I believe are true, I absolutely know that I’m wrong as much as I’m right. Please forward your ideas, comments and “helpful” suggestions along - we won’t get there unless we get there together.
