Ruminations on Russia

The king of broadband comment correctly points out that there is the beginning of a VoIP shakeout. To give him his due he is rarely wrong and admits it when he is.

I think that the more nuanced message that should make itself heard above the din of badly researched acquistions is that very few pure VoIP service-providers pretending to be pure communication devices will survive the death rattle.

I do like the technology that underlies the game. Global IP Sound is a little overvalued (work out the link) but there are others that have been built with smart engineers with an eye on the web and telephony that will make their owners a small fortune.
