Voice 2.0 Manifesto Reflections and Progress

October 13, 2008

Back on October 21, 2005 Alec Saunders pulled a post together (Voice 2.0: A Manifesto for the Future), that built on many of the VoIP innovations we were seeing at the time. More recently there have been presentations “VoIP is Dead” by Skype’s CEO and questions that lead one to ask whether the Voice2.0 manifesto [...]

Phone Phweet Icon

October 9, 2008

Yesterday I decided to use TwitterKeys to see if I could make it more obvious that phweet = a telephone option.  Could I insert a “telephone before the PhweetURL? Turns out I did and didn’t. At least I don’t seem to see it everywhere a Twitter status update appears. When it’s working it looks like [...]

Links / Routing / Control

October 9, 2008

Yesterday I wrote a post “Communications is Fragmenting” with the idea of inserting some controversy for discussion. I received a great answer from long time friend and mentor Ed Prentice of Televoce. Ed’s voice is one of reason and reflection. Three elements that are discussed are important to me. Grand Central and One Number/Identity – [...]

Communications is Fragmenting

October 8, 2008

The next time you use Phweet I’d like you to consider how it improves communications in a world that is rapidly fragmenting. We want Multiple Identities: Our directory listings are increasingly fragmented, outdated and dispersed. Where once a white pages or yellow pages listing was enough we now have profiles on social networks, corporate profiles, [...]

Late last week I tweeted “I hate getting calls from unknown numbers.  Find it rude too. What do you do with them? It was a simple question and I felt I had a reasonable handle on it. I received answers from both fellow tweeters and Facebook friends responding to my status update. The answers received [...]

One Phweet Conversation Over AirCell

August 21, 2008

They said it couldn’t be done. AirCell said they would block calls from aircraft. What and who flys and tweets at 35000ft? @Andy Abramson tweeted a little while ago breaking the news that you can talk now on AirCell using Phweet. AirCell had recently announced that WiFi would soon be on all aircraft although no [...]

Phweet Alpha – Flash and PopUp Blockers

August 20, 2008

I published this over on PhweetTalk and am publishing it here too. I’m finding a higher failure rate than desired for first time users of Phweet who have popup blockers on. Many users on Firefox are using Adblocker. This simply blocks the popup flashwidget. As a result you will be dissatisfied. This is what Phweet [...]

Phweet Connections Very Encouraging

August 20, 2008

The last few days have been very special. I’ve started to lift my head up from the “business planning” side of Phweet and beginning to share it with more friends and new Twitter buddies. The conversations are the most rewarding part. The shift really happened on Sunday when I sat down with @patphelan for breakfast [...]

Phweet Thoughts on Laws of Identity

August 14, 2008

Kim Cameron writes today that he has been working on how to make the Laws of Identity accessible to busy people without a technical background. The short laws he outlines below are exactly the reason Phweet was created. I would add one element to these simplified laws. Escalation to the highest levels of communication should [...]

I am not a number! I am @stuarthenshall a Twittername

August 14, 2008

I sympathize with Stephanie Booth today. She’s one of the lucky one’s that’s learned that Twitter on the mobile via SMS is ‘instantaneous”, “current” and keeps you abreast in real-time. Here’s a pictorial example of how I see it on my iPhone. Note it looks like a stream just like a Twitter page. Note I’ve [...]
