Telecom reform legislation is popping and hopping in the House and Senate.
So, we reorganized <bell.com> today to prepare for more postings and
materials in the near future, and to make those we have now more
accessible and usable.
--> We organized a new Library with a more intuitive and usable structure.
--> We're adding our own advocacy and advertising materials because of
interest from folks outside the Beltway. More will be put in that section
over the next few days.
--> We posted the new study by NERA (National Economic Research
Associates). It looks at seven indicators (focusing on AT&T) to
determine how prevalent competitive forces are in the long distance
market. The indicators are:
-- Relative Price Performance -- Advertising
-- Pricing Behavior -- Competitor Entry
-- Productivity -- Financial Performance
-- Quality
NERA provides more context for the earlier PNR & Associates "bill
harvesting study" [as an ex-epidemiologist, I especially appreciate
terminology] on long distance company call plans.
--> We haven't posted House bills and materials quickly, and we're
working on that. We're seeking to meet the high goals we set in the
Senate postings.
