Some Gems of Wisdom from the Excel User's Conference

OK, gang, the 2005 Excel User's conference is in full swing here in
Boston. Lots of great information and good ideas going around from the
people who make applications work. There are people here from Korea,
Guam, Singapore, China, Switzerland, Australia and New Zealand. I seem
to be the only one from South Carolina.
I will post more, but here a couple of the quotes so far:

"SMS was the accidental killer app." -Marc Zionts, CEO, Excel

"Think globally, but partner locally." -JC Murphy, President, Excel

"Video messaging is the sizzle around media servers, voice messaging is
the steak." -Andrew O'Brien, VP, BrookTrout

"If you want to be a telco, you shouldn't have to be a software
company." -Cork Vanderford, PDS Guam

"Politicians are beginning to see a lot of money leaving their pockets because of VoIP. The question is, what are they going to do about it?" -Rich Tehrani, Publisher, Internet Telephony Magazine

More later!
