News, Omar Jamil Style

-- Breaking News --

Omar Jamil, a journalist for Red Herring Magazine, a publication based in Mountain View, California, wrote yesterday.

His article, For whom the Bell tolls, covered the SBC buyout of AT&T. The 366 word story highlighted the merger's effect on startups.

Killer quotes include:

“VoIP is a very disruptive technology, which is probably one reason why this is happening,” Vonage CFO John Rego said of the proposed merger.

According to J. Sanford “Sandy” Miller, general partner at venture capital firm 3i and board member of Vonage, the proposed merger holds little significance for startups. “So SBC becomes bigger, but it was already big,” he said.

“The concept of the service provider going is revolution; with the service provider, it’s not really a revolution,” said Mr. Goroshevsky, implying that his technology would get rid of service providers altogether, whether it’s AT&T or Vonage. “The bigger they are, the harder they fall.”
