This week I was in San Francisco attending the Frost & Sullivan Growth, Innovation and Leadership conference. On Tuesday I participated in a panel moderated by Melanie Turek (blog) on Unified Communications. It is always interesting to have the opportunity to discuss my experience with Sametime and UC, and hear what others are doing with UC with Sametime and other products. This was my first time in San Francisco and I did manage to ride on a cable car, and take a quick boat trip to see the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz (though I wish I would have had the time to take the tour of Alcatraz not just cruise around it.
