Join Jeff Pulver at Spring 2008 VON.x in San Jose

I’m looking forward to being in San Jose the week ofMarch 17th and catching up with my friends attending Spring 2008 VON.x.

Since the first VON event that took place in San Francisco in April, 1997, VON has been the home of Internet Communications Revolution. Over the years VON has been the place where the future was explored, ideas were shared and where an industry was born. Spring 2008 VON.x continues this tradition and will be a to be a great place to socialize ideas, conduct business, meet with customers and explore the future of communications.

In 2008 the communication revolution continues. Leveraging the seeds planted by friends like David Gurle when he managed to get Microsoft to support SIP in Windows XP, we are now seeing Unified Communications quickly becoming the accepted in Corporations around the world. And in my book, “Personal Communications” (both Mobile and Broadband) is one of the breakout technologies of 2008.

I will be speaking at the Spring 2008 VON.x Conference the morning of Tuesday, March 18th. My speech will be about the future of communications and will be looking at the answer to the question of “How do YOU communicate?”

In the afternoon of March 18th I will be hosting a general session on “Real-Time Social Communications” I am real excited about. Joining me in the general session will be: Robert Scoble, Loic Le Meur, founder, Seesmic, Ramu Sunkara, co-founder and CEO of Qik, Brad Hunstable, co-founder of Ustream.tv and Jonathan Christensen, currently responsible for voice and video technology at Skype. I also have invites sent to friends at twitter and Facebook and they may also be joining our discussion.

If you have a vested interest in the future of communications, please register for the Spring 2008 VON.x conference. And if are a blogger, please drop me a line and you join the list of bloggers attending Spring 2008 VON.x
