Information optimisation using the VoiSpeed IP Phone System
While search engine optimisation is quite specific, the term optimisation is generic and can mean all kinds of things. One form of optimisation is information optimisation. Recently I have been playing with the VoiSpeed IP phone system which we recently switched over to at work. I have to say it is a great piece of kit and enables you to do all kinds of tasks.
VoiSpeed IP Phone System
Currently the VoiSpeed IP phone system isn’t that well known, which I think is a real shame as it isn’t just a viable alternative to the traditional business phone system, it is a far superior phone system. I have been testing its many features and some of them are an absolute dream. Here are just a couple of my favourite features so far (it would take me weeks to mention all of them).
Instant text messaging
This is probably the simplest feature on the phone but its one of those things that in a year’s time your wonder how you coped without. It just a pure and simple text facility, right click the mouse on someone’s icon who is logged onto the office phone system, select send text message and write away. The amount of time this has saved me from not having to go from one office to another is just great.
Voice mail box with a twist
The voice mail on the VoiSpeed phone system is just a little bit better than anything else I have used before. It works just like any other mail box, a call comes in, the receptionist forwards it to your extension for the caller to leave a message, and they record their message. But then, because this is the VoiSpeed IP phone system and it is software based and driven by your network, it automatically sends the message to you by email, ready for you to log into your email account from wherever you may be and listen to the message.
Anyway thought I would give you a break and something to read while churning through the directory list below.
The SEO Gurus poem
Am I alone as I survey that vast wilderness outside, Sat at home every day fettered by my own foolish pride, I may believe I can conceive stunning cunning plans, Yet I perceive the web I weave is lacking vital strands, It may transpire my destiny is to conquer virtual space, But I must wire the best of me to another spidery face, For although knowing everything about business and site, To grow means throwing other experts in to get it right, So even this experienced spider who spins webs so fine, Needs for bliss a guider to show the whole world online, His creation, born bred and reared , now standing serene, Will evoke elation and be revered if it can only be seen, There's no point in Picasso no mike in Michelangelo, If the joints a no go and the sound man doesn't show, So that treasure you're concealing from total global view, Measures up and has meaning with others helping you, We all have inborn talent and also inborn failings, So often scorn a balance, chained to our own railings, And our world misses a website that deserved to be a star, But not unfurled in all its might, merely cowering from afar, Why not take your Van Dyke, or Rembrandt seen by few, And let us make it see the light, exposed to global view, Don't hide them in shadows behind barriers of your mind, Where pride and jealous arrows make them hard to find, Instead turn to experts just as good as you would like to be, Who you'll learn to trust, and who will set your website free.
