Is Unified Communications an Industry or just Buzz Words?
When we first began our collaborative work, we saw the idea of Internet radio and a talk show program as one of the things we knew we’d enjoy most. We both love to talk, and we love talking to each other, but we’re also interested in a huge variety of different subjects.
Last night we hosted our new Internet radio talk show, Stardust Radio. This radio program is truly planned to be a broad forum to discuss a wide variety of topics. In fact, we’ve posted a poll in our sidebar to ask your votes on what sorts of topics you’d most like to hear.
To encourage you to participate, here’s our current poll –
Loading ...Being the impatient souls we are, we also decided we need to move forward. The other day, Sheryl raised the question Unified Communications: Is Business interested? and Ken jumped on board with Unified Communications – Dispelling the Myths
Because of our close involvement with this industry, it’s a sure bet that technology and communications tools will be the subject from time to time. When it is, I’ll cross post the shows here for ease of access. Last night’s show was focused on dispelling some of the myths surrounding Unified Communications. Together, we decided it was a compelling enough topic to drive a radio talk show conversation.
Joining us in the conversation last night were Jonathan Hollander from Phone Fusion, Robert Wolpov from Junction Networks, Randy Busch from Jazinga and our good friend Jim Courtney, an analyst who writes extensively about this industry on Skype Journal.
One of the most interesting conclusions we may have reached is the agreement that unified communications simply isn’t a product you can buy. It’s an industry and describes the evolution of communications technologies to converged networks and tools. One of the participants said during the show that if you ask 100 customers what unified communications means, you’ll get 200 answers.
Here’s the content from our show last night. We hope you enjoy it. And we hope you’ll come join us on a regular basis both on the phone and on the web.
