What's with this Buzz about Web2.0 Apps?
It seems like all the buzz today is about a recent list of Small Business Apps from the guys over at Aviva Directory.
So what's all this buzz about? As far as I can tell, everyone is going gaga over some of the hot new Web2.0 apps that they've compiled. Admittedly, the list is actually a really helpful and interesting compilation of small business applications. But why is the VoIP world talking about small business?
The reason is that a good number of these tips build off a VoIP framework to achieve their connectivity. Take for instance ConceptShare which will allow you to modify graphic presentations in real-time with multiple users spread throughout the world. By bringing the global real-time connectivity of VoIP to projects that used to be mailed back and forth through email, small business owners are finding that outsourcing is becoming an increasingly viable option.
While some are arguing that the ability to achieve complete collaboration through a combination of voice, video, is going to eliminate third world poverty, I am understandably a bit more reserved. I would say, however, that the rising popularity of Web2.0 apps and their incorporation with VoIP technology will likely breathe new life into small business outsourcing, and should help all small businesses, foreign and domestic to lower their operating costs.
If you want to check out the article, there are also some great organizational resources which I'd recommend you checking out as well. Not specifically VoIP related, but if you're running a small business you certainly need them.
