« Enough with the Skype! Gossip: | Main | Tom Evslin on AlwaysOn: "Don't Buy DSL From This Man (If You Can Help It)" »
November 26, 2005
This week in my corner of the Blogosphere:
This started off with more interesting news in the "Broadcast 2.0" space with the announcement that it will soon be possible to download TV shows from TiVo to an iPod.
This was also the week that Capitol Hill addressed the E911 VoIP issue with Bipartisan support where members from the US Senate and the House Weighed in on Emergency Response.
Kudos to Australia for their announced VoIP Policy Framework which includes a separate non-geographic numbering scheme.
And perhaps due to the relatively slow news week brought on by the US Thanksgiving Holiday, this also seemed to be the week that the Skype Paparazzi, including: Andy Abramson, Alec Saunders, Om Malik, Mark Evans and a few others chimed in, including, Skype Paparazzi wanna be Mike over at Utopia/IP.
It will be interesting to see whether or not the FCC reevaluates on Monday, their designed E911 D-Day for VoIP service providers in the US.
