Our guest this morning was Irv Shapiro, CEO of Chicago based Ifbyphone. Ifbyphone is a converged voice and web solutions company that made some big announcements at eComm a couple of weeks ago. Irv told us a little about his company's vision for creating voice mashups, and then his offer to give away up to 1 million minutes of telephony per month to developers at eComm. The Mashup API they use is analagous to a web form, which makes it simple and easy to use. AND, perhaps most interesting to readers here, they have a partner program that will share revenue with developers.
Enjoy!

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.
