If You Could Ask Cisco A Unified Communications Question What Would It Be?

CiscoMy friend Brad Reese who blogs for Network World in addition to owning and operating BradReese.com – Cisco Talent Portal called me today. This Thursday, he’ll be interviewing Joe Burton, Chief Technology Officer for Cisco Unified Communications. Joe blogs regularly at Cisco if you’re interested in Networking.

Brad has graciously extended us an opening to the interview to provide some questions that we may have. So, if you have any Unified Communication questions as it relates to Mobile, fire away in the comments.

Here’s my question Brad:

As these technologies converge and users begin to get a feel for unified communications at the desktop where do you see Mobile fitting into the messaging scheme as it relates to email, specifically with SMS/Text… can users expect at some point that SMS/Text might also be instantly available to be read right from a single application without a whole bunch of magic backend synchronization going on? The standard mess that we deal with today in messaging goes like this… my mobile phone sits on my desk and collects SMS/Text, my browser manages my Gmail and Outlook handles the rest. Can you rescue us from the madness Joe?

Thanks for the opportunity Brad!
