VoIP Business Opportunity
In case anyone is interested in this opportunity, please contact Steve directly.
-----------------------------------------
Hello Rich,
My name is Steve Holmes and I own and operate a Telecom consulting firm up here in
A few months back, I had acquired the following domain names:
http://VoIP2Phone.com
http://VoIP2Phone.net
http://VoIP2Phone.biz
http://VoIP2Phone.org
http://VoIP2Phone.us
Along with this, I have also applied for Trademark protection through http://uspto.gov. A LOGO has been designed. And lastly, I have acquired a couple of "800" version Vanity toll free numbers that spell "VOIP" and "FAX" within each number.
I am explaining this to you to portray the fact that I have wanted to launch a VOIP telephony business in a very bad way but am now running slim in the financial department. My question to you is, would you know of any company or individuals that may be interested in joining me to run with this endeavor?
I am sure you receive MANY solicitations weekly, if not daily and I apologize in advance if this e-mail is a nuisance. A reply from you would be greatly appreciated and respected.
Thanks for all of your time.

VoIP Fuels Web 2.0
A new beta of Yahoo! maps was recently released and I am impressed. Google has garnered much attention recently with it s new maps service and I am sure the pressure was felt by Yahoo! to one-up the company. They have. The new Yahoo! Maps beta is exceptional and I think I am a pretty tough critic.
The major difference between what Yahoo! does and Google is the technology behind the maps. While Google uses AJAX, Yahoo! uses Flash. I am a big fan of
I wonder if the success of Yahoo! Maps – assuming it is as successful as I think, will slow down the growth of
What average Joes should care about however is the really useful feature of putting local search results on the map. What this means is that you an see the restaurants, ATMS and any other sort of business in a certain area.
Google Maps can do this as well but with Yahoo! when you mouse over the different businesses on the left hand margin, the corresponding icon on the map changes to let you know where it is. So the Yahoo! integration is as also slicker in my opinion.
The better mapping technology gets the more people will use these maps to find their way. Furthermore, the better the integration of local businesses with mapping, the more money Google and Yahoo! will make. You see it is only a matter of time before you are able to call businesses by clicking on an icon on one of these maps.
Will Google and Yahoo! charge vendors for this services? Probably. I would imagine this is the most logical way to generate revenue from such services. So VoIP now becomes a tool to not save money but instead to make it. VoIP itself, a technology that is looking for new killer apps is itself a killer application!
This is not the first time voice over IP has been viewed this way. After all Skype’s sales price of 2 billion dollars plus was predicated on the killer-app nature of the technology behind the world’s leading peer to peer communications service.
VoIP is more than just a way to save money. It is becoming the fuel powering Web 2.0 application engines! It seems every few weeks that VoIP becomes the enabler for another successful business model. The power and flexibility of IP communications is staggering to me and the future of VoIP 2.0 gets brighter and brighter as more and more Web 2.0 applications start to rely on VoIP to fuel their revenue-generating success.
