STATUS: Bringing User Presence To The Voice World

With the booming of social networks, people are making it a habit to share experiences with their community public short messages or status such as "I am drinking coffee at Starbucks, rue de Rivoli". STATUS is a Telephony-inspired platform that publishes and shares user presence in both Telco and Internet clouds, creating real-time and collaborative communication experiences. Thanks to STATUS platform, user status is no longer a raw message but a voicemail greeting, SMS auto-reply, or a posting on Twitter or Facebook. As a multi-modal platform (Voice, SMS, IM, VoIp), STATUS improves the efficiency in communication and provides new opportunities for local advertising, marketing, data mining and social addressbook integration.
