As with all technologies, voice communications continues to evolve in unexpected and innovative ways. Voice 2.0 is the concept of merging voice and data technologies to service businesses and lifestyles in ways never before dreamed possible. As a result, innovative start-ups are giving us new ways to manage our social network, schedule conference calls, avoid long distance fees, and navigate phone menus. Imagine having voice or calling preferences automatically set based on a person’s location or movements. Or the ability to automatically record, transcribe, and index conversations with customers that automatically initiate service changes without a representative’s input or interactions. This is the type of evolution that will be available in Voice 2.0.
