Here I sit in JFK fielding calls from reporters on FCC Chairman Kevin Martin's appointment. I am excited about speaking at the Interactive Intelligence seminar in Dallas tomorrow and that is even with my two-hour flight delay.

Getting back to the appointment -- there seems to be some genuine enthusiasm over this appointment in the industry. Many have told me they think this is great choice and I agree. Ultimately policy decisions are a delicate and complicated process so it may be a while before we see any substantial policy changes but at least the steering wheel is being held by capable hands.
