I thought this might be of interest to some..... Network Magazine is planning a survey of European ISPs for its November issue. If you work for an ISP who sells to business users, consider taking 10 minutes to fill out the survey below. Why spend the time ? Simple. It's about eyeballs, as in potential customer eyeballs. Network Magazine is the only global monthly focusing on the development of large scale corporate networks. The network managers who read Net Mag are heavily involved with selecting and purchasing the IP services their companies will use. Although most are located out region, many are looking at buy services within Europe. Participating in this article is an easy way to get valuable face time (or print time as it were) with these key decision makers who normally may not be exposed to the local press. Need another reason? How about this. The first three folk who get me a survey get taken out for dinner at Interop Paris (November 6-8). Ahhh, I can smell that food now. Delivery for the feature survey is by Monday at the latest. There's a bit more time on the ISP Index. You can deliver that one by end of next week. The food deal only applies to the feature.
