I'm full of admiration for Jeff Pulver.  Time and time again he puts his money where his mouth is.  This time he has offered to seed finance innovative new communications startups.  After speaking on an IPTComm panel last week, and gently taking the panelists to task for failure to innovate, he spent the weekend thinking about the problems, and decided that it was time to make some investments.

Good for you Jeff!

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.
