How much do you love your technology?

Enough to wear it on your body? Leif Madsen, one of the authors of Asterisk: The Future of Telephony sports the animal from the cover of his book on the back of his leg.

"Yes, this is a real tattoo," says Lief. "I got it about a year ago (almost exact a year ago -- just previous to the last AstriCon). Note this is on the back of my right calf, and not my forearm (it's a pretty big logo, so you can see in relation I'd have to have huge arms for it to be to scale--lol)."

Now that's commitment! Let's hope that a change of heart down the road doesn't have him wishing that he'd gone for the Switching to VoIP macaws or the T1 caribou.
