Voxeo Talks

Last week at eComm Europe, Voxeo Lab’s Jay Phillips spoke on “Entrepreneurial Advantages with New Open-Source Technologies” and as usual providing an entertaining set of slides complete with LOLCats and other pictures that… well… make you think you kind of had to be there to understand! Along the way he outlined the state of a number of different open source telephony and communication tools… and made an announcement in the middle, too….

10 – 10:35, Devloping AGI & AMI Applications with Ruby and Adhearsion

Adhearsion (http://adhearsion.com) is a Ruby-based framework, installable as a gem, that provides a comprehensive development environment for developing voice enabled applications using a jargon free DSL. Further, Adhearsion integrates with Rails in various ways, extending Rails seamlessly into the voice world.

We will provide an overview of why Adhearsion was created, how it works and then provide a tutorial on developing your first application.

If you are there at Astricon, please do say hello to Jason, who can also be found on Twitter as @jsgoecke.

Will you be out at ClueCon, the “Open Source Telephony Developer Conference”, in Chicago this week? If so, please do say hello.

Three of us from Voxeo will be there. Jay Phillips (who just recently joined Voxeo) will be speaking about Adhearsion, RJ Auburn will speak about developing voice applications and I (Dan York) will be speaking about VoIP security.

In my case, ClueCon organizer Brian West asked me if I would be open to reprising my “SysAdmin Steve” talk I gave at ETel back in 2007. Given that it’s probably my favorite presentation because the style is so completely different almost all my other presentations, I was glad to agree. In a sad commentary on the state of VoIP security, though, when I went to update the preso I found that.. well… it’s pretty much the same as 2007. I made a few updates and am looking forward to giving the talk.

I also agreed to help Brian out emceeing the conference as I did last year. All in all it should be a fun event… some really great presentations queued up… looking forward to learning a good bit…

Anyway, if you are out at ClueCon, please do say hello.
