VoIP News Top 50: Let's Recognize Jim and Phil

by alec on November 15, 2006

Monday VoIP News published their fifty most influential people in VoIP list, and naturally I was pleased to be both named on the list as a founder of iotum and for this blog.  Thanks for the recogntion! 

Two other Canucks made the list as well — Mark Evans and Jon Arnold, which Jon noted in his blog posting.  I would also add, indirectly, that there is one other Canadian on the list, and that’s Jim Courtney through the citation in Skype Journal.  Jim and Phil are the backbones of that site. 

Alec Saunders is the Vice President of Developer Relations for BlackBerry maker Research in Motion. This is his personal blog, with his personal viewpoints. Prior to this Alec was the CEO and co-founder of Calliflower — the easiest way to hold a meeting, online, on a conference call, or on the go. A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.
