We’ve been watching our user count on the iotum FREE Conference Call application on Facebook like hawks for the last 12 hours. Yesterday morning, the Facebook Developer tracking system pegged our count at 50,053 installs. Our own numbers showed a slightly lower number, which by late afternoon had reached 49,750… just a few short of 50,000. And this morning when I checked at 7 AM… 49,980. So close!
A couple of hours later, however, we’ve crossed that threshold! Sometime between my breakfast cereal and my coffee, we rolled past 50,000. Now on to 100,000. Think we can do it by New Years? Join us… and make a five minute call before New Years Day to be eligible for our 8G iPod Touch draw.

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.
