Presentation on Voice 2.0 given at the IMS ARCs meeting - covers ideas around IMS Applications by looking at today's Voice 2.0 Services
Transcript of Voice 2.0 and IMS Applications
Rococo / mySay / Dial2Do• Rococo: Java/Bluetooth middleware
– Shipped on 100+ million phones
• mySay: Voice/Web Services– Incubated within Rococo
• Dial2Do: Voice Activation platform– End-user focus: drivers with 30-60 minutes hands-free time a day– Business focus: Voice services “for the rest of us”
“The future is already here…it is just unevenlydistributed” William Gibson
- IMS and RCS promise many things…- Compelling new applications & revenue streams- However: the applications proposed are often….- ….well, dull
- Look at the services emerging in “Voice 2.0”- Can be very useful as guides for IMS/RCS
Some Voice 2.0 themes• Main theme : voice meets web (not VoIP)• Social Phone Book
– My contact list should know stuff about what mycontacts are doing - now
• Social Radar– Who’s near me; do I know them?– What’s near me– Who’s been here?
• Geo Life Journal– Digital breadcrumbs - constant, intermittent, tiny,
updates• Communication control
– Let only who I want, get me when I want, the way Iwant
A lightning tour of some “Voice2.0” players
So what do we mean by Voice 2.0?
• Voice-centric phone services that– Harness the internet for some or all of those Web
2.0 characteristics– Integrate web functionality with the phone system
to deliver new services• Not!
– Nothing to do (especially) with VoIP - they tend towork with IP and non-IP phone systems

“In the old world, the economic activity startedwhen the phone call began. In the new world,that’s when the economic activity ends. Themoney is all in presence, social networking,filtering, privacy management, and so on. It’s acomplete inversion of the economics oftelephony. Therefore expect many of the vendorsto be disemboweled in the process”
Martin Geddes, Telepocalypse Blog
Operators, IMS/RCS and Voice 2.0• IMS and RCS capabilities in many Voice 2.0
services now• Find ways to step towards the social phone book
– Voda buys Zyb; how can you look at adding connectionor status information to address book?
• Mine data– Example 1: mine texts for social “zeitgeist”– “Dublin is mostly texting about Bruce Springsteen
tonight”– “Sean has been talking to Shona again” on fb
• Offer input for digital breadcrumbs– Not your own photo sharing, social networking– Add value to the ones already successful (location,
billing, timing, activity, connections)
Watch the Apple App Store
Conclusion
• For concrete ideas on tomorrow’s IMSservices– Look at emerging “Voice2.0” services today– Focus on what people appear to be using - not
what the technology supposedly “promises”• Operators can participate, and profit, in the
“Web2.0” phenomenon– Figure out how to expose, share and add user
value to their data– Tap common standards now (don’t wait): XMPP,
SIP, E.164…
