A quote from Peston's Picks, blog of the BBC business editor:

"Here's an odd thing about BT. It was privatised 25 years ago. But whenever BT gets its tail up and tries to go global - whenever it leaves these shores in a multinational kind of way - something seems to go horribly wrong."

The rest of the article is available here.

So, what do you think - has he got it right?

It intrigues me how people

It intrigues me how people are able to prosecute others for creating convenience products like Google Voice happens to be experiencing. In short, Google Voice put together the majority of the different calling features that have been invented, into one place that will not cost you anything to use, fully free therefore requiring no advance loan to sign up. You would need to check out their internet site to see all their features since there are way too many to name, but they are really some good things to try. The only real wrinkle in this development is that Frontier may have a patent on this idea already simply because they sued Google over it. Frontier is likely mostly upset that Google is supplying these services cost-free when they planned to earn money from them.
