			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It keeps coming:</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.mobivox.com/">Mobivox</a> Unveils Voice-Activated Mobile Services Platform</strong>: This is primarily geared at service providers. While I think their platform is good, as it contains thinks like voice-activated dialing and call control, group calling, and voice-to-SMS, and voice-to-email messaging, I think the challenge is going to be getting carriers to adopt. You can read more from them on the <a href="http://blog.mobivoxpl.com/">Mobivox|PL blog</a>.</p>
<p><strong><a class="zem_slink" title="Alltel" rel="homepage" href="http://www.alltel.com/">Alltel</a> Bringing Customers NuTsie</strong>: If you want to spend $4.99 a month or $19.99 a year to listen to items from your <a class="zem_slink" title="ITunes" rel="homepage" href="http://www.apple.com/itunes/">iTunes</a> library from your Alltel handset, and you happen to have one of the 10 handsets Alltel supports this on, get thee to the Alltel Shop on the handset and buy it.</p>
<p><strong>Into High School Sports? Check Out Locofan.net</strong>: <a href="http://macvoip.com/stn/?p=753">Ted Wallingford helped to put together</a> a <a class="zem_slink" title="Social network service" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_network_service">social networking site</a> for high school sports called <a href="http://www.locofan.net/">LocoFan.net</a>! This is about empowering the social discourse surrounding sports that makes prep athletics so much fun. Things like boosting, smack talking, Saturday-morning quarterbacking, and of course, media sharing. Not personally a high school ports fan, but maybe when my kids are old enough.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.defimobile.com/">DeFi Mobile</a> Offers Unlimited Calling over WiFi for $40/mo</strong>: This service provides unlimited calling as well as unlimited data on a number of commercial WiFi hotspots worldwid&#8211;yes, data you can use for other things. Seems a bit like a cross between <a href="http://www.boingo.com/">Boingo</a> and <a href="http://www.truphone.com/">Truphone</a>, but personally, I think Truphone and Boingo are a better deal.</p>
<p><strong><a class="zem_slink" title="Skype" rel="homepage" href="http://www.skype.com">Skype</a> on <a class="zem_slink" title="Asterisk (PBX)" rel="homepage" href="http://www.asterisk.org">Asterisk</a></strong>: <a href="http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/tom-keating/asterisk/skype-for-asterisk-launches.asp">Tom Keating did a long piece</a> on the recent announcement about Skype being made available as a channel driver for Asterisk. In short, it allows you to both make and receive calls with Skype using an Asterisk server. Anything you can do with, say, an oubound SIP channel or an IP telephone extension can bow be done with Skype. It&#8217;s not going to be open-source, nor is it going to be free. It does open up some interesting opportunities.</p>

If DeFi Mobile does allow calls to mobile phones to be included in the $40/mo, then they are probably going to go out of business really fast. However, I suspect they don't allow this.</li><li><a href="http://phoneboy.com/2587/miscellany-from-the-inbox">18 October 2008</a>, spg writes: very interesting. i posted on questions on the defimobile forum. there was no reply to the forum post but i did receive an email from Nikki @ Defimobile, posted below:


Satphoneguy,

DeFi Global Access members enjoy unlimited global calling. This
includes outbound calling to all countries and phone types.

On Oct 16, 8:27 pm, Satphoneguy  wrote:
&gt; &gt; do i understand correctly that included are calls worldwide? does this
&gt; &gt; include outbound calls to all countries and phone types or only that i
&gt; &gt; can use the servicer anyplace in the world to call my home country?
&gt; &gt; for example can i make unlimited calls from the USA to cell phone in
&gt; &gt; europe?
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; thanks in advance for clarification.

i may give them a try; although i wish they offered the same price plan as an outbound SIP trunk. i can not possible see how they can offer calls to countries such as cuba that run several dollars per minute.</li></ul><hr /><h2>Related Posts</h2><ul><li><a href="http://phoneboy.com/271/my_battle_with_email" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: My Battle with Email">My Battle with Email</a></li><li><a href="http://phoneboy.com/722/sometimes_nothin_can_be_a_real_cool_hand" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: Sometimes nothin&#8217; can be a real cool hand">Sometimes nothin&#8217; can be a real cool hand</a></li><li><a href="http://phoneboy.com/1735/struggling-with-inbox-zero-on-gmail" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: Struggling With Inbox Zero on Gmail">Struggling With Inbox Zero on Gmail</a></li><li><a href="http://phoneboy.com/548/something_happened_to_gmail!" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: Something happened to GMail!">Something happened to GMail!</a></li><li><a href="http://phoneboy.com/3036/clearing-inbox-debris" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: Clearing Inbox Debris">Clearing Inbox Debris</a></li></ul><hr /><small><a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/us/">

<p>This next week, I&#8217;ll be in Ottawa. Should be much better weather-wise then it was when I was up there last time. weather.com says it&#8217;s warmer than Seattle is right now, but not by much. I should avoid most of the hot weather up there, which has a habit of happening in June. <img src='http://phoneboy.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

Do you use any of the aggregation services like FriendFeed?  The nice thing there is that you can add a bunch of your individual feeds to it and then wind up with one page that aggregates all of your posts across all of your blogs.  You then have the option that rather than writing posts like this you can just point people to your FriendFeed URL (and associated RSS feed if people want to subscribe to it).  For instance, mine is at http://friendfeed.com/danyork and aggregates my online content across my blogs, Twitter, del.icio.us, Seesmic and more.  Now, adding in Twitter, especially, adds a lot of volume to the feed, but you don't necessarily have to do that. You could *just* have your blogs in there.  FriendFeed also has a nice feature where if you write at a group blog it can only pull in the posts that *you* author.

On the other hand, if you have the time/energy to assemble these summary posts, they are a nice addition to your weblog.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="float: left; margin-right: 10px" src="http://www.phoneboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/phoneboy.png" alt="PhoneBoy" />I wrote way too many blog pieces this week. In addition to the 20 entries on this list, I&#8217;ve got another 10 or so queued up for next week. Hopefully, I can slow down a bit next week now that I&#8217;ve got a good queue to work from.

<p>You&#8217;ll see some different blogs below. Let me explain. My new &#8220;gig&#8221; with Creative Weblogging has me posting to a bunch of blogs&#8211;22 in total&#8211;mostly on blogs that are &#8220;dormant&#8221; and need some content. I call it a &#8220;roaming editor&#8221; job. The only blog of theirs that I am the main editor for is The VoIP Weblog. The other blogs (except for Geektronica and voip.com/blog) are different CW blogs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="float: left; margin-right: 10px" src="http://www.phoneboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/phoneboy.png" alt="PhoneBoy" />It&#8217;s been a busy week sorting out who I&#8217;m going to blog for and what kind of blogging I will be doing. I have a better answer to that question now, and it looks like I am taking the insane approach <img src='http://phoneboy.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Right around the time I signed the paperwork to blog for voip.com, I got an interesting proposal from Creative Weblogging. What they were looking for is someone to essentially &#8220;fill in&#8221; across some of their English-speaking blogs to post when blogs had gone fallow or at other times when the need was there. The terms of this job are a bit more favorable than the previous arrangement.</p>
<p>The biggest question in all of this was what I was going to do about <a href="http://www.voip-weblog.com/">VoIP Weblog</a>, which covers the same topic. My intent is to continue to post there until CW finds another blogger for this blog. After all, that will be part of my job. <img src='http://phoneboy.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what I got out this week:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="float: left; margin-right: 10px" src="http://www.phoneboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/phoneboy.png" alt="PhoneBoy" />It was nice to be at home after all the VON.x partying last week. Got a couple of new toys&#8211;one to play with (Nokia N810) and one to review (a PBX from <a href="http://www.talkswitch.com/">Talkswitch</a>). I also spent some time cleaning my newly working pinball machine. This evening, I replaced all the rubbers and gave the playfield a polish. Now I just have to wait for my pinball repair guy to come out and fix the other things that are still broken with it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.phoneboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/phoneboy.png" alt="PhoneBoy" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px" />Happy Easter, for those of you that celebrate!</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t tell you how nice it is to be home after this past week. I had <em>so many</em> conversations with <em>so many</em> people. I <em>partied</em> like I never partied before. My mind was over-stimulated in a way it hadn&#8217;t been in a while.</p>
<p>While many of these great conversations happened at VON.x, I also had some great ones inside of Nokia as well. Many of these conversations were related to new product directions in the current group I work in, and there were a couple related to an entirely new direction for my career. Nothing is even in silly putty yet, as my wife so eloquently put it, but it could mean the beginning of an entirely new chapter in my career at Nokia.</p>
<p>Because I was so busy this past week, I really didn&#8217;t get too many blog posts out. Here&#8217;s what I managed:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.phoneboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/phoneboy.png" alt="PhoneBoy" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px" />This week, I will be down in Mountain View to visit the office. It&#8217;s been about 6 months since I&#8217;ve been down there, which means I&#8217;m well overdue for a visit. <img src='http://phoneboy.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Of course, that&#8217;s not the <em>only</em> reason I&#8217;m going down to the Bay Area. There&#8217;s this little Voice over IP conference called VON.x going on in San Jose as well. It&#8217;s the first time I&#8217;ve been to one of these kinds of shows for VoIP&#8211;heck, it&#8217;s the first time I&#8217;ve been to a trade show of any sort in over a decade. <em> </em></p>
<p>Because I&#8217;m on the road, I&#8217;ve already pre-written some stuff for this coming week. I have no doubt my inbox will be flooded with press releases with all the happenings at VON.x, so I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll be writing a few posts as well.</p>
<p>This past week, I posted on the other blogs:</p>
