ISP Information:
This is a derogatory slang term for the era of the Dot Com website when many companies were funded with unrealistic expectations and questionable business plans, causing a virtual bomb to go off in the economy as most of the companies eventually collapsed.
ISP Glossary:
Dot Bomb - Danny Burstein wrote in messagenews:telecom22.584.16@telecom-digest.org: In 617@volcanomail.com (J on the phone)writes: Business lines is the key. I've never seen a local operating company, Bell or otherwise offer this as a part of residential service. Some do offer a modified Centrex for the home, but out of group transfer is not part of the service package -- or an available option. Call transfer within a Centrex group has been available for many years, but more and more providers are offering the "transfer and disconnect" feature with and without Centrex on any business line. However, I'm not aware of this service being available anywhere with residential service. If I'm wrong, I'd love to hear, since my business product uses this feature and residential access would widen my market! In the NYC area this used to be available, under the tradename "intellidial" (maybe intellical), from the local RBOC. I personally used it -- including the txfer to offsite -- from my home. I dropped it a decade ago when they told me I couldn't get caller ID on lines with this service since it wasn't tariffed. Shortly afterwards they suspended the offering. I don't know if it's been replaced by anything similar. [TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: That may be the reason why Illinois Bell dropped that feature also which they called Intellidial. But Southwestern Bell (SBC) still seem to have at least the remnants of it under the name 'Plexar'. PAT]One major problem the telcos have with POTS call transfer isbilling. In regular POTS each originating party is billed for the callthey initiate. In call transfer the Billing records "collapse" on tothe transferred leg of the call very possibly making a called partyunwittingly responsible for the entire bill from the call transferforward. Another possibility is transferring two outgoing trunkstogether; not sure how originating billing would be accomplished inthat scenario, likely there would be a bill to the originator for theduration of the call, and the two terminating trunks could talkforever with no charges? Obviously this scenario would be furthercomplicated if the trunks were inter-toll to a LD carrier. DownstreamAMA processing would have a very nasty time sorting these scenariosout.It is possible to institute CXR for local calls only, but that wouldbe confusing for the customer.It is not forbidden by most (I say most because I can speak for the 5Eand the DMS) switching software to assign CXR to a RES line (they areall mostly RES or Centrex lines now, flat rate, party and coin lineclass codes are disappearing fast.) The telco OSS software isresponsible for restricting the assignment.Usage sensitive or terminating billing would solve most of thesescenarios, but I don't think that's likely to happen in POTS land. Ido expect to see CXR on cell phones someday though.
