  • Looking forward to 2008

    Part I of this USTelecom dailyLead special year-end report looked back at the most important trends and stories of 2007. Part II, below, highlights our predictions and yours for what's in store for 2008.

    From my vantage point, 2008 will offer both opportunities and challenges for our industry. While there are legislative and regulatory issues brewing, the main focus of telecom providers next year will be advanced services, including broadband delivery and video services.

    As for events, mark your calendars for NXTcomm 2008 (June 16 to 19) in Las Vegas, the leading event for the converged-communications industry. Visit USTelecom's Web site throughout the year for educational forums and webinars.

    I hope you enjoy reading the results of our readers' survey below.

It's a matter of the ads being targeted to a demographic that the advertisers want. At the moment the video units program isn't setup for a target group outside of a few specific countries.
