Well I think they sent us members of the press a letter asking us to refer to this event with a New York suffix. Anyone who might be unsure this event is in NY might just want to step outside for a few minutes to enjoy New York’s bone-chilling single-digit winter temperatures.
As I commute from Connecticut I can’t help but recall the weather in NY is usually warmer than ours by 5 or so degrees. I can use every one. I take the train into the city and shared a nice 10 minute wait outside for the lumbering mass transit vehicle with other red-faced (wind burned) passengers.
The weather reminds me that my family has been sick for a few weeks and I hope the weather coupled with some virus that seems to have staying power don’t combine to allow me to be inflicted with the same malady.
For the record I am popping my vitamins to help ward this thing off.
As I sit on this hot and cramped train bound for Grand Central Station I can’t help but reflect on all the exciting things happening at TMC. In January ITEXPO moves to Ft. Lauderdale, FL. The attendance is already super-strong for this event.
In addition SIP Magazine launches in print this same month followed by IMS in print in February. TMCnet also has some huge news to share next week.
Our company has further been on a hiring spree to keep up with our massive growth. Internet Telephony Magazine continues to be one of the fattest magazines in technology and easily dwarfs all other telecom publications. ITEXPOs routinely grow at 100% per year as well. Finally TMCnet is routinely attracting more than 700,000 unique visitors per month.
As we close out on what has to be the best year in VoIP ever I would like to say thanks to all of our loyal readers and advertisors/exhibitors. Many of you stood by TMC when VoIP was a pipe dream in the mid-nineties. I don’t know if you believed me when I said this market would be huge but at least you kept reading 🙂
Furthermore I would like to wish everyone a very happy holiday season. I hope you and your families stay safe, warm and have a life filled with accomplishments and devoid of regrets.
