Every Sunday early AM, Tues and Thurs PM with Emerald Coast Racing Team, and Wed PM with CaptnFun Runners at Pensacola Beach, I hook up with my classic IPOD with 100s of podcasts from Geekspeak.org, Bending the Needle, VoIP Users Conference and Stardust Global Ventures' Incidental Interviews. It takes my mind off the humid heat in Pensacola, Florida and on to what's happening in my industry and in my pasttime of technology in general.
The most recent podcast interview of mine is with David Mandelstam of Sangoma on DIDX podcasts. What a treat!
Someone commented on my list of interviews as, "It's definitely not some secret club of yours that you interview. They are developers, CEOs, inventors, innovative monetizers, clients, newbies, and even competitors in your archive of media channel videos, podcasts and photos."
I believe everyone I meet has much of value to share with the rest of the world. I do not have a secret club of industry friends. I believe even in the collaboration of competitors.

VoIP デッドオアアライブ, Dead or Alive with Sheryl Breuker
Whether it's Hajimemashite, Konichiwa, or Sayonara to VoIP... check out...
VoIP デッドオアアライブ, Dead or Alive ~ Sheryl Breuker and Ken Camp "help people in technology find their passions, reach their goals, and soar to the stars." On January 5, 2009 Monday at (GMT -08:00), be a part of the CALLiFLOWER free conference call and conversation hosted by Sheryl Breuker. VoIP, Dead of Alive.
This call will address what I think are tough questions, ones that we need to ask and answer truthfully... and it might help when the air gets hot and stuffy, that Robin Williams pay a visit to lighten things up a bit.
1. Do you truly and honestly believe VoIP is a vital, growing technology that's of any interest to customers?
2. In ten words or less, what do you think the single hottest niche segment within the unified communications space is for 2009? Depending how many they get, they may discuss these in more detail, because Sheryl thinks this is where the meat of the conversation we're circling around lies.
3. In ten words or less, what do you think is the single most talked about but unlikely to drive real change and innovation technology in 2009? Where do you think time, effort and money are being wasted?
4. What one company or service do you think will take the industry by storm in 2009?
5. What one spectacular flameout do you think is coming in the industry in 2009?
Add yourself to the debate, conversation, discussion ... here ... http://apps.new.facebook.com/calliflower/conf/show/43921.
I want to write more, but my husband, Paul Epstein and I have to go measure the Pensacola Marathon race course before the roads get busy. It's a dangerous job but someone's got to do it. I'm the driver. They are the bikers.
(I originally placed this on http://blog.tmcnet.com/monetizing-ip-communications/, but it appears that it's not accepting the katakana characters.

Yes Men and Women, Quality vs Quantity... Social Networking 2008 (Part 1?)
It's 6:39 AM on Dec 31, 2008, and I don't have much time to blog. It's New Year's Eve. I have a slightly nervous feeling like I haven't done everything this year I should have. Actually I feel like that all the time. It keeps me hopping!
You all have helped me, influenced me, inspired me ... more than you know. In fact, as always this is about YOU (not me).
Quality rules. Quantity for the sake of quantity is wasteful. The quality of my social and business networks on platforms such as Facebook and Twitter rock. I don't collect people ... (thanks, Charles Wu, for that discussion, you are one of the great quality). Meaningful interaction that is natural and and not forced, I love.
Time is everything to me and you. What was I thinking?
When you critique me, my familiy, my company, my team... fairly, I grow. In fact, I discussed with Muhammad Bilal, Syed Talha Izhar, Bilal Khalid Qanungoh, Riccard Cirello, Binodan Sarma, Peter Radizeski, Ali Hadi and Rehan Allahwala these questions on Facebook after watching Marley and Me:
Who really listens to you?
Who is really interested in what you have to say and wants to truly collaborate with you?
Who in your life makes you feel extraordinary?
We need those who make us feel extraordinary but not good to have all YES people around, right? What do you think?
I will memorize this answer: Binodan Sarma at 12:28pm December 26
Couldn't agree more Suzanne... All 'Yes' often smell of disdain and uncared under the garb of 'Loyalty'... :)
AMEN, brother Binodan!
What else is cool and full of quality in my social/business networks?
The women in voIP group on Facebook, no women's lib about it... it's just absolutely exciting to see what other women are accomplishing in our industry and the opportunities to collaborate are very cool: Megan Zoback now with a bluetooth headset co., Ilissa Miller and Jaymie Scotto with Jaymie Scotto and Associates, Hina Iqbal Siddiqui of Super Technologies, Inc., Jessica Ruiz (just had a baby and worked as translator for Supertec at conferences in Portuguese, Spanish, English, and Italian), Catriona Harris (just had a baby, is with Vantage Communications, and is a great Twitterer), Susan Hancock of Intelliverse, Ksusha Carmes (a good inspiration for being happy that we are women), Brooke Afick of Bezeq (I have to meet this lady!!!!)...
Karen Campagna of Cisco (who is a BLAST to hang out with, very cool!), Monica Dytko Haley of VoicePulse (who has really interesting, creative Facebook statuses), Tehila Frenkel of Russtel S.A. (and one of my lovely Jewish friends), Connie Terwilliger (always young, fun to be around, great voice), Lynda Starr of Vantage Communications (can't wait to her give a presentation at a conference), Carrie Hartford of IPSMARX (a lesson in professional character), Eliana Gonzalez of Verizon Europe (I'm taking Spanish lessons incognito from her wall... actually I'm taking lessons in Urdu, German, French, Malay, Hebrew, and Spanish from several on Facebook, same method ;-), Anne Stobaugh of San Diego, Isabel Gonzalez Cancela of Belgacom ICS, Dunia Campos of Ultracall (an inspiring entrepreneur and a blast to hang out with), Jenny Callicott of Celtrek and Global Roaming (smart, tons of fun to work with and hang out with, we won't forget Dubai!)...
Sheryl Breuker of Stardust Global Ventures (an inspiring and smart evangelist for effective voice innovations and unified communications), Laurie Kennady Hilt (excellent support for conferences, hire her!), Ekram Megdiche and Najia Yahyaoui of Acropolis Telecom (great professional attitude to work with), Joann Varello of Crossfire Media (fun to hang out with and one of the few who will run with me), Beth Hoskin (dynamite at conferences), Kathleen Reed of Sangoma (extremely effective marketing director, must be a mega-multi-tasker), Anne Tredway (a mind full of the history of telecom, fun to hang out with), Zhu Jessica (remember the Golden Gate Bridge!), Nora Ouchen and Sandrine Roullet of Acropolis Telecom (I'm looking forward to meeting),and also Cassandra Hamilton, Susan Kurzyniec Tlacil, Maria Teresa, Elesabeth Salemi, Nanette Monty who I haven't met yet but am looking forward to.
It's 7:16 AM. I must get to work. I hope to continue this discussion, soliloquy, whatever you want to call it ... soon.
