Something New For GrandCentral Users
|
I was whipping through my TweetDeck Tweets last night when I came across a random note about a new app from Google's Code, a place where Google developers hang out and put out all kinds of things. What caught my eye was something that seems so simple one has to wonder why it took this long to come out in support of former client GrandCentral. Basically, the IT is a plug in for the Mac and other address books in the form of a UI that lets you set up and bridge calls using GrandCentral between the destination number and...

Telstra Adds Video Conferencing To Enterprise Offerings
|
Video conferencing is being added by Telstra as part of their enterprise and government offerings, reports IT News. This makes me think that Telstra has to also be taking a very close look at consumer grade video conferencing services (possibly ooVoo or SightSpeed) to roll out as well.

Ribbit's New Platform Launched
|
Ribbit has launched their new platform at Adobe Max today. Mashable has the details. My take: Open platforms are becoming more and more the new way of doing business. Open networks on the other hand don't yet exist really, other than the public internet. While carriers "speak" open, they really are not that "open." And for good reason. Security. Until the app and the data piece of the triangle can be secure, the network can't just let anyone or anything in.

Vapps Bought By Citrix is Number 15 for Me
|
My colleague, valley legend and master of the message, Bill Ryan, calls the what we do, "groom to flip" and the New York Times has the state of the industry pegged perfectly when they wrote up the recent VAPPS acquisition of by Citrix. Nowadays companies that are venture backed are no longer IPO candidates that often, so instead being acquired at a far lower multiple is the route out. That means the company has to be flipped, or it has to grow, because the starry eyed dreams of IPOs of the past is far from happening any time soon. For...

Another Week, Another Conference
|
This week is a busy week, and there's no relief in sight. That's a good thing as this Wednesday and Thursday in San Francisco is the Open Mobile Summit. It's really shaping up to be something of interest to me, as the idea of Open seems to have many definitions. It's sort of like "unlimited."

Hyatt Business Plan Brings Civility To The Road Warrior
|
Over in London I enjoy staying in the Andaz, a hotel property of Hyatt that was designed by the famed Terrance Conran. It's a converted hospital less than a 100 yards from Liverpool Street Station. At the Andaz I get free coffee, free laundry for essentials, refreshed water, free broadband and a few other perks. Well it seems parent Hyatt is realizing that in tough business times that they need to upgrade what the give their bread and butter guests, so they are taking a page out of the Andaz's book and launching the Hyatt Business Plan Package which includes...
