Salman Ansari on the State of DIDX: Video Interview

Salman Ansari has over 38 years of professional experience in telecommunications. He heads the policy formulation team for telecom deregulation and ICT development in Pakistan; advises Chinamobile, PTCL, PTA, Mobilink, Multinet, STM Wireles, and more on privatisation strategies, technology and regulation issues, convergence and new IP based services, and optical fibre projects. He also is a part of designing and implementing smart buildings such as the Grand Hyatt in Islamabad. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Hyatt_Islamabad

He worked in technology transformation of the education section such as HEC, PERN, and AIOU. I remember Salman's name many times on educational Internet mailing lists even in the late 90s when I was using my FIRN teacher's account for Internet. (CTRL J meant delete, and if you did do that, you'd have garble.)

Though Salman is a telecom and IT genius, a rebel of sorts... he is completely accessible, friendly, and willing to teach, share, and learn. It's our pleasure at Super Technologies, Inc. to count him as a friend, critic, and think tank session buddy.

On this video, he shares his thoughts about www.didx.net where 11,000 service providers from 170 nations, as of October 2008, collaborate in buy/sell DID direct inward dialing (local and international phone numbers to keep families, small and large businesses in touch with those important to them).
