For the Record, This Was the Best VON Ever

Garrett Smith asks “Was the fall VON show a disappointment?”, and points to my comments about the blogger panel to indicate that I was dissatisfied with the show.
For the record, this VON was the best VON I have ever attended.
From the opening buzz around iotum at the voice over IM panel on day-1 right through the exhibits, presentations, panels and social gatherings …. the message was clear: VON is where VoIP, Voice and Vision, happen!
For iotum, it was a stellar show - the fruit of three years of hard work - and a lot of behind the scenes good faith, planning, preserverance and vision that is slowly coming to reality.
Thanks to the work we’ve done, and to the help we’ve had from our advisors, people couldn’t talk about presence and real-time communications, without referring to iotum.
And, for the record, my comments on the blogger panel were simply intended to provoke a discussion about whether that particular event could be improved, or whether (like many sessions at similar shows) it should be replaced in the future.
Congratulations to Jeff Pulver and his team on a job, well done. We certainly feel that VON created opportunities for us.
