The Pulver Order: One Year Old Today!

It was one year ago today, on February 12, 2004 that the FCC granted the “Pulver Order.” and that “Pulver” became a subject noun amongst telecom regulatory laywers in DC and around the world.

As the Internet continues to happen around the world, so does ‘end to end IP Communications.” To the extent that communication continues to evolve without the need to touch the legacy PSTN telephone network such that people that are connected to broadband internet have ways to directly communicate with each other, The Pulver Order provides clarity as to the regulatory treatment of such services in the United States and provided a model for many other regulators around the world to follow.

The past twelve months have seen the commercialization of Voice over IP shift into high gear, as well as the launch of quite a number of companies and services all focused on helping to make ‘end-to-end IP’ a reality. The FCC’s issuance of the Pulver Order helped set the tone, the pace and the future of IP Communications in motion and today there is no looking back. The Pulver Order provided the regulatory clarity needed for all of this to start to happen.

During the past year Free World Dialup continued to grow. At the moment we have more than 450,000 members from around the world. As a network, we now have well over 100 peering relationships in place with other service providers which empower our members to be able to reach millions of people around the world by taking advantage of ‘end-to-end IP.’

Given the significance The Pulver Order has had on myself, pulver.com and the IP Communication Industry, I will be forever grateful to Chairman Powell’s FCC and for the vision and courage they had for the granting of it.

I look forward to continuing to make myself available to work with the FCC, Congress and other regulatory authorities around the world as IP Communications continue to evolve.

The idea behind this article is excellent, and for me the first item ("Create your own damn content!") is the real gem here: most of the people spend their entire lives only consuming what is created by others, and creating nothing themselves--or never sharing what they create, which is better than not creating at all, though not the best they could do.

www.enjoyingsport.com provides the Nike Free 3.0 v3
The Nike Free 3.0 v3 Running Shoe offers the best of both worlds: the benefits and feel of barefoot running, along with excellent support and cushioning.
Benefits
Seamless mesh upper for a lightweight, breathable fit
Phylite midsole for durability, a resilient ride and reduced overall weight
Deep Nike Free flex grooves for enhanced flexibility and stability
Weight: 7.2 oz (men's size 10)
Fit
Minimalist by design, the Nike Free 3.0 v3 features a seamless upper that's as flexible as it is breathable. Open mesh allows air to flow, while bonded lightweight overlays help lock the foot in place without restricting natural movement. The inner sleeve adds a plush feel, and off-center lacing reduces irritation that can be caused by chafing.
Flexibility
This version of the Nike Free has wider flex grooves across the forefoot for muscle activation, providing natural flexibility, ample protection and just enough support for serious comfort. On Nike's barefoot scale, the 3.0 most closely mimics the barefoot experience.

Shutdown no longer "long-winded"
Windows 7 friends used, must have windows 7 key encountered this situation. Click the button that is turned off, windows 7 key the system is not shut down immediately, but sometimes pop up a translucent page, suggesting that also shut windows 7 keydown X number of procedures. Think about it, this would not prompt unnecessary, as we have to shut down La miles also a long-winded way to ask why? So most users have responded and I, like, just click the "forced shutdown" button.
