Devoting a Minute or Two to a Few Thoughts on the Entrepreneurial World of Naveen Jain: Altruism at Its Foremost

You are almost certain to have seen mention of Mr. Naveen Jain’s name as being the co-founder and CEO of Intelius, Inc. the predictive intelligence service company. As well as making the Forbes 400 Richest in America list 2000, this enterprising businessman has been bestowed various coveted awards including the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award, the Albert Einstein Technology Medal, and the WSA Industry Achievement Award. But that is definitely not the end of the story. That’s because Mr. Jain and his family are every bit as avid about their benevolent projects and will seek to help out as frequently as they are able to.

Our children definitely incorporate humanity’s most precious resource. This enterprising man regards (and treats) young people as the essential focus of his philanthropy organizations, and he takes every chance he encounters to support them. This, too, is why he is always untiringly taking advantage of every opening he can to lend a helping hand wherever it seems feasible. In consequence, Naveen Jain, his family and the staff at Intelius dedicate their time to a great range of philanthropical organizations such as Hopelink, the Children’s Hospital, and the Bellevue Boys and Girls Club. As is to be expected, they will offer plenty of monetary support, but most importantly, they dedicate time and attention to those kids who require it the most. What’s more, he supports the Children’s Hospital hoping to meliorate the state of child health.

Seeing that Naveen Jain is an alumnus of XLRI Jamshedpur and the Indian Institute of Technology, it comes as no surprise that teaching has been assigned a very high priority within his charitable activities. This also includes movements and voluntary organizations that may range from the regional to the global. As a result Intelius and its CEO are actively sponsoring charitable associations and organizations such as TreeHouse, United Way and Child Rights and You (CRY). Feeding the world’s starving is an additional serious responsibility for Naveen Jain and his relatives and it makes no difference at all to him whether it is a kid in Illinois or Guadeloupe, or an elderly lady in Uganda or Bosnia in need of aid. While Naveen is very cognizant that the ambition to feed every starving person in the world can look like an impossible task, he is also cognizant that the impossible can actually be realized assuming that every person labors towards a united end. If this CEO obtains his objectives, there will be a decisive end to destitution and hunger everywhere in the future. You might feel that as the headman of a spectacularly flourishing enterprise and a committed husband and parent would provide him no time for volunteering and support. Nonetheless he sees to it that each of of his altruistic endeavors is given all the aid he can possibly muster. Indeed this indefatigably idealistic entrepreneur is certainly much more than just a business captain. In actual fact, he is an outstanding citizen and an exceptional community hero.

Smart Choices in VoIP For New Users

Gepost door admin op 28/07/2009

The buzz surrounding Voice over IP technology has been growing for quite some
time, but only recently has the notion of ditching standard telephone service grown
so compelling that companies like Skype can claim over 215 million downloads of
its product. In this article, we’ll explore the current offerings and help you make
wise choices while embarking on the VoIP path.

Let’s start with vocabulary. The most important and oft-repeated acronym you
must learn and understand in regards to Voice over IP is SIP. SIP stands for Session
Initiation Protocol, a well-established, open-standard protocol that is the glue to
the VoIP world. It allows a vast array of services, software, and hardware to work
together to create flexible, feature-rich calling solutions with many attractive
benefits. If it doesn’t support SIP, you shouldn’t support them.

WHAT DO I NEED

At minimum, you need a high-speed Internet connection, a SIP phone number, and
a softphone. A softphone is a software version of an IP phone that lets you make
calls using your computer.

Some services, like Stanaphone and Gizmo, will provide you with a softphone to use
with their system. Most of these will only let you configure SIP numbers that belong
to their network. If you want to utilize multiple SIPs across different networks, your
best option is to use X-Lite, a free softphone from Counterpath (formerly known as
Xten Networks). With X-Lite, it appears you can configure up to 9 different SIP
numbers. Like Gizmo, X-Lite comes in Mac, Windows, and PC versions.

If you want to use your existing phone, rather than a headset or microphone and
speakers, you’ll need an analog phone adapter. Dedicated, SIP-compatible IP
phones are also available. Wi-Fi IP phones can be carried with you and used
wherever there’s a wireless Internet signal. There are also WiFi mobile phones
available.

You should also receive a SIP URL which looks similar to an email address and is a
simple way to share your new contact information. You can easily dial a SIP URL in
your softphone application or link to it from a web page. If you’re using a hardware
phone, SIP Broker has a free service that can maps the SIP server names to short
numeric codes, allowing you to easily dial users on over 200 different services.

WHAT CAN I DO WITH IT

You can make free calls to other IP phone users worldwide. You can make calls to
traditional phone numbers or attach a local phone number that routes to your SIP
number, allowing regular phone users to call you. If you travel, you can carry that
same phone number with you wherever there’s an Internet connection, and the folks
back home won’t incur long-distance charges when they call you. Free voice mail,
too, and messages are delivered to your e-mail.

In a business situation, you could slash or eliminate your long-distance charges by
setting up free calling between remote or international offices. Videoconferencing
also becomes possible without dedicated line charges. For the more adventurous,
you could also setup a PBX. Asterisk is a powerful, open-source PBX system with a
feature list that can give any sized business the advantages of a full-fledged digital
phone system.

If you work in a scenario where 2-way radios are utilized, DingoTel offers a product
which can turn these in to VoIP walkie-talkies while making use of the radios full
reception range, sometimes up to 12 miles depending on the model.

For the budget-conscious, with some services like Gizmo and SIPphone, standard
phone users in major cities can dial a free access number, enter your SIP number
and speak to you via your IP phone. SIP Broker also maintains a few numbers which
allow callers to dial SIP numbers on any of their 220+ supported networks.

It may seem tedious, but programming the entire of sequence of numbers in to a
phone’s contacts directory is quite straightforward. Just remember to insert pauses
to allow for the phone system’s menu options to respond. If your friends have free
long-distance calling plans, they could reach you via any of the available access
numbers mentioned above at no cost to either of you.

IPKall and Stanaphone will give you a free local number as long as you don’t mind it
being in Washington State or New York City. IPKall will forward your number to any
SIP URL, but Stanaphone’s will only work with the SIP number provided through
them.

Free World Dialup and SIPphone have peering agreements allowing you to SIP dial
users on a number of different VoIP networks using a short prefix. SIP Broker can
also help you reach anyone on a service that allows incoming SIP calls, which
Vonage and CallVantage do not.

There are also SIP-compatible softphones available for the Pocket PC, Palm OS,
Symbian, and Linux handheld markets that can turn your handheld in to a cordless
Internet phone.

SERVICE PROVIDERS

You have to pay when you want make calls to regular telephone numbers. If you
want a local number that links to your SIP number, that’ll usually cost you, too. The
good news is that the prices are very reasonable. There are many service providers,
plans, and packages out there to suit home and business users. Here are some
important questions to ask:

  • Does the plan include hardware, i.e. an analog phone adapter?
  • Will I own the hardware being provided by the service?
  • If I am buying the hardware, is it locked to your service or can I use it with other
    SIP service providers?
  • Do you offer a “Bring Your Own Device” calling plan?
  • Does the plan include a virtual phone number so anyone can call me?
  • Are all incoming calls free?
  • Can I receive incoming SIP calls by number and/or URLs?
  • Make sure you understand any contracts, fees, calling rates or restrictions before
    agreeing to service. There are numerous service providers offering free and paid
    services. With a little bit of research, you’ll find something ideal for your intended
    purpose.

    OPTIONS

    If you’re looking to stay on your computer while having some room to grow, check
    out Gizmo. Gizmo is an excellent, cross-platform SIP softphone that works with
    network services from SIPphone. In this setup, you could add incoming virtual
    phone numbers for $12/3 months or $35/year that will allow folks to call you. All
    incoming calls are free to you and to the person dialing (as long as it isn’t a long-
    distance call, of course). They also maintains in major cities that users can dial,
    enter your SIP number, and then be connected to you free of charge. They also have
    decent outgoing rates for non-IP calls and sell making this a solution that scales
    well for the average user. There’s even an Adium plugin available for you Mac users
    out there.

    Stanaphone is a free service from hosting giant Intermedia that also provides you
    with a free virtual phone number in the New York City area. You can also receive
    faxes sent to your virtual number in your email. Voice mail is also included. You
    can also utilize a SIP phone adapter with the service, but you’ll have to pay to make
    outgoing calls to standard phone numbers. At 2.6 cents a minute for calls in the
    US, they’re a bit more expensive than Gizmo/SIPphone but the free virtual number
    and fax receiving are nice bonuses although their service lacks in other features.
    Stanaphone has a softphone client for Windows and PocketPC, but Mac users can
    also use CounterPath’s X-Lite softphone with the service. The web site also says
    only Stanaphone to Stanaphone calls are free, so you might be better off sticking
    with Gizmo and their flexible peering agreements.

    Free World Dialup offers SIP network services, but also has their own combination
    Video IP Phone / instant messaging program. Within one program, you can make
    SIP-based voice and video calls and chat with your friends whether they’re on
    Yahoo, MSN, AOL, or ICQ. Their traditional inbound and outbound calling service is
    still in Beta and a bit more expensive than Gizmo. Their Communicator application
    is also available for PC only, although many hardware devices will work with the
    FWD SIP network.

    A number of service providers offer packages targeted towards specific kinds of
    users. Broadvoice, for example, has unlimited worldwide plans starting at $19.95,
    while also offering a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) plan at just $5.95 a month.
    TelePacket has plans that start at just $0.95 a month while Packet 8 has plans that
    target videoconferencing users at $19.95 a month.

    SUGGESTIONS

    If you want to test the waters, I’d start with trying out Gizmo. It’s a lightweight,
    feature-rich softphone that also gets you service through SIPphone. They provide
    local access numbers for non-VoIP users to call SIP numbers from traditional
    phones, have many peering agreements with other networks to keep you connected,
    and support options like virtual phone numbers and offer low-cost rates on calls
    made to standard phones to give you a more robust VoIP phone package when
    you’re ready.

    If you want to take the plunge, check out Broadvoice or Packet 8, who offers E911
    service. They both offer robust feature sets, unlimited calling plans, inexpensive
    virtual phone numbers, and have a good track record of reliability and service.

    As for speaking and listening on any of these services, you have three basic options:
    use a quality headset, purchase a phone adapter, or purchase an IP phone. A
    headset, of course, is the most economical option. Buying a phone adapter is a
    good choice if you love your phone and/or want to continue using your standard
    phone service. Most, if not all, phone adapters also plug in to your phone line to
    utilize the attached phone for both VoIP and regular phone calls. If you like the idea
    of an IP phone and have a wireless network, we strongly suggest getting a WiFi
    phone. It offers the most flexibility because it allows you to not only talk wirelessly
    at home, but wherever there is a wireless Internet connection.

    CONCLUSION

    Whether you just want a new toy or are looking for a replacement phone system for
    your home or office, the current crop of VoIP offerings present a wide array of
    services and options. Review each company’s web site, read the fine print, and
    search the web for service reviews and user experiences. You’re sure to find a
    suitable solution with the ideal combination of cost, features, and quality that you’re
    looking for.

    VegaStream’s Introduction to VoIP

    Gepost door admin op 28/07/2009
    Toegevoegd onder: Telecommunication Center

    Internet Telephony is used to describe a service that enables people connected to the public Internet with a suitably equipped PC to have voice conversation; examples of Internet Telephony providers include Skype. VoIP is the generic term for the technology that enables phone calls to be made over networks running the Internet Protocol, be that the public Internet or private IP networks. It is also the term that is used to describe the technology in a business to business context. One could say that the consumer will use Internet Telephony while businesses use VoIP.

    Voice over IP (VoIP) converts the analog signals of sound when using a telephone to a digital format for transmission across a data network and then back into analog when it reaches the receiver. In a VoIP network, digitized voice data is highly compressed and carried in packets over an IP network. The phones can be purpose-built devices for the IP network (e.g. SIP phones) or standard everyday analog telephones. VegaStream core product range allows users of existing phones to take advantage of VoIP networks.

    What’s all the hype about?

    The reason for VoIP’s popularity is a simple matter of physics. You can put more traffic over the same physical network using IP than you can with traditional telephone technology, Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) as used by the public switched telephone network (PSTN). This simple law is driving many PSTN network providers to migrate their existing TDM networks; that have served them well since the invention of the telephone, to the new IP technology. BTs 21st Century Network is a classic example of this migration.

    With VoIP, IP allows us to use a single high-speed Internet connection for all voice, video, and data communications. This is known as convergence and is one of the primary drivers for corporate interest in the technology. The benefits of convergence are obvious. By using a single data network for all communications, it is possible to reduce overall costs.
    Furthermore, the business model for data networks, including the Internet allows the customer to remain permanently connected at a fixed price. Meanwhile, when using traditional PSTN, the meter starts running every time you pick up the phone.
    The idea of VoIP communication dates back over 20 years however, a greater interest in the applications of VoIP emerged in the 1990’s, with the growth of the Internet. The Internet made it possible to interconnect every home and every business with a packet-switched data network, this saw a rapid growth in VoIP technology. Today, with broadband connectivity the norm not just in business but also at home and even over the mobile, the platform is set for an explosive growth in VoIP.

    VoIP Changing the Way We Communicate

    VoIP offers a great deal more than cost savings in telephone calls. VoIP technology allows devices to recognize and communicate with each other as if they were connected over a dedicated wire (like the TDM model). It therefore enables video, instant messaging and data conferencing as well as voice. Furthermore all these communications techniques can be used simultaneously allowing people to share images and information as well as hear each other speak - all on the same call.

    VoIP communication therefore allows us to actually change the way we communicate with each other. Communicating over the phone with VoIP will be more immediate, collaborative, visual and cost lest. No wonder the market for VoIP equipment and services is the fastest growing sector in the IT industry.

    Formed in 1998, VegaStream is one of the most experienced players in the industrial VoIP market. The company supplies gateway CPE to both traditional telecommunications carriers and the new generation of Internet telephony service providers. VegaStream also serves the enterprise market through a global network of distributors and resellers supported by regional offices in the UK, USA and Australia. VegaStream is a non-listed UK company. Investors include the management team, Pace Micro Technology PLC and MTI Partners.

    It can sometimes appear as though hand writing is a dying art, it’s one that is even nowadays primary in numerous areas of life. A handwritten letter expresses more importance than a typewritten letter, such as an apology, an invitation, or an application for a job.

    One might believe it’s a recent fashion of the masses shunning penmanship and using a keyboard instead, yet as far back as the late 1800s, there were complaints that hand-writing was overlooked due to the invention of those times : the typwriter. These days, the blame is being attached to the ubiquitous utilization of computers.

    Nonetheless, there is still a healthy need for penmanship skills in academia and the business world. Penned missives are viewed as far more honest, they demonstrate the author has carefully thought out her words, while demonstrating more respectfulness to the reader. In this modern age of templated letters, the penned missive has never been more influential.

    I’ve frequently been caught red-handed with my poor hand writing - made worse by years of relying on my computer keyboard. In situations where I’ve had to put pen to paper, my writing’s been almost illegible at times. That can be embarrassing. How to work out such a problem? I wrote as often as I could, and my writing greatly improved. In conclusion, it’s smart to improve your penmanship through sheer repitition.

    One more tip is to acquire a pen your hand is comfy with, and it must accept refills. Great refills include the better-known mont blanc refills. This allows you to better your hand-writing with a single pen.

    There are so many different social occasions that call for flowers as a gift. However, you can’t always get to the florist when you want to. If your mother lives out of town, for example, it is hard to just go to your local florist and have them delivered to her.

    However, you can order online flowers through an online florist and they can save the day. They will go to a local florist near your mother, and order the flowers to be delivered from there. This way your mother gets an arrangement with fresh flowers that will last longer than just a day, and you will look like a great son or daughter in your mother’s eyes for sending such a pretty gift.

    Being thankful is often an overlooked attribute, but by stopping to smell the roses, quite literally, we are reminded that everything in life is as fleeting as the first crack of daybreak in the early dawn hours. Celebrating our friendships with flowers is not only refreshing, but when a person receives a flower arrangement their loved one so thoughtfully chose for them, it brings them considerable pleasure and brightens their day. Just think of the impact you could have on the day your mom, dad, best friend, sister, brother etc. is having when the delivery person walks in to their place of employment — or rings the bell at their home — carrying a dazzling, fragrant array of the freshest, most beautiful flowers they have seen. Your act of kindness can go a long way in making them feel as special and loved as they actually are.

    So just think about this, the next time that you need to send flowers or flower arrangements then you need to check out this online florist. You will not be disappointed. Do not just think that you have to go to your local florist, because there is no need for that when you can have the luxury of ordering from the Net. You will not have to leave home at all for any reason. You will not even have to deliver them either. They take care of everything for you. It is very nice.

Betting saloon games more often than not have 100% determined chances incorporated which ensure the company possesses dominion over the guests.

    It’s easy to neglect health insurance policies while planning a college education. In general, health insurance is not generally dominant in a student’s mind. Let’s face it, in your twenties you will tend to think that you will live forever and you’ll not suffer from an illness. As we all know, this is seldom the case no matter how healthy an individual may be. Appropriate medical insurance is not merely for those with a stack of money, it’s utterly necessary. For individuals lucky enough to be included in a parent’s policy, most of them will extend to a college student until they reach twenty-three. For anyone who doesn’t have medical coverage via a family plan, an essential part of preparation for a college education must be getting an affordable medical insurance plan. What’s essential in health insurance for students? So what is a deductible? This is a yearly payment made before any health benefits commencing, much the same as an auto deductible.
