OCS 2007 Launch in London

I was at the Office Communications Server 2007 launch today, held at Vinopolis in London, UK. I missed the complete morning sessions because I got caught up on a client firewall issue. But what I did see I thought was great day.

If you've read this blog before, you'll have seen previous posts about Live Meeting and Unified Communications. Mainly because I love technology, resell Live Meeting and setup the Live Meeting User Group .

One thing I have been meaning to get round to doing, is integrating my trixboxPro IP phone system into Office Communications Server(OCS). trixboxPro is built on Asterisk, an Open Source IP phone system. trixbox built one million lines of code into it and bundled a bunch of great services, and you have an excellent IP phone system capable of integrating with VOIP, analog or digital calls.

Microsoft was giving out some great swag. Only next time, I need to make sure I pick up a bag with the cool Jabra IP phone rather than the bag with the equally lovely but far cheaper Jabra headset.

Here's a photo of Mark Deakin presenting at the OCS 2007 launch.
