Just as VON Europe was starting I recorded a podcast with Carl Ford of Pulver Media. It's just under 25 minutes of talk, mostly me, covering what I'm seeing in various telecom and Internet areas where NMS (or I personally) are active. The sequence of topics covered is:
- Internet access and what I have in my home
- NMS name (NMS Communications vs. earlier name Natural MicroSystems)
- What we're seeing in our business unit that sells to VoIP and mobile telecom developers
- Brief mention of our cellular backhaul optimizer used at rural cell sites in developing areas
- Mobile applications
- Ringback tones
- Music industry and content aggregators
- Video technology - 3G324M, video over IP, video servers, gateways, transcoders
- Video telephony applications - face-to-face vs. see-what-I-see
- Translating mobile applications from one market to another, globally
- Emergence of Asia as a hotbed of new applications
- IMS & IMS evolution
- IMS vs. Internet, especially w.r.t. developers and new applications
- VON as a place to see exciting new companies
- VON business contacts
- VON parties
Again, it's 25 minutes in all, so if you only skim my written ramblings you'd better skip this podcast. But if you've got time to kill or are a really devoted fan, e.g. my mother, the podcast is here.
