This blog will focus on issues at the intersection of telecom, mobility and the Internet. I won't overwhelm you with daily commentary, as there are many others who do a good job of tracking and commenting on breaking news. Instead, look here for occasional posts, of substance I hope, and with information you may not have seen in the normal industry buzz.
I am Chief Technology Officer at NMS Communications and this blog is hosted by NMS, however the content here is mine alone. Of course, many of my interests overlap with topics of interest to NMS Communications, but if you're looking for official NMS information please look at our website. And of course, if you are looking for NMS "insider information", don't expect to find it here!
I have a long history with telecom and the Internet, beyond what's mentioned in the official bio. I entered the telecom industry when some friends and I started NMS Communications (originally named Natural MicroSystems) in 1983. (It's true, there were also some college-era telephony activities :-), but you'd have to buy me a beer to learn about those). I only got serious about the Internet in the early 1990s, but I've been heavily involved in VoIP since 1996 and I've benefited from the views of several friends and acquaintances who can rightfully be considered Internet pioneers.
Finally, despite my engineering origins, I've been speaking and writing on industry subjects for many years and I keep getting invited back, so hopefully there's some value in some of the things I have to say. Stay tuned.
Ahoy!
I stumbled upon your site while searching for a new cellphone. It was interesting to read your article about the ubiquity of cellphones in Pakistan. Being a Pakistani(and living here) the article is of particular interest.
You blog surely goes into my favorites.
