[edit] Biography
Pulver is the chief writer of what's referred to as "the Pulver Order", which was adopted in 2004 by the Federal Communications Commission as the first FCC ruling regarding internet protocol communications. The order ruled that computer-to-computer VoIP is not a telecommunications service. He coined the term purple minutes to describe value-added IP network traffic.
Today he concentrates on the field of Internet Video or IP Video. He was profiled in 2006 by The Wall Street Journal, discussing his visions about both voice and video over the Internet, and was listed as a BusinessWeek "Tech Guru" in 2003.[1][2]
