  • QuickVisuals Feature Spotlight: Invitations

    rprovine@ganconference.com
    2 Nov 2009 | 3:58 pm
    QuickVisuals is easy to use when you are in a meeting. That is a great feat in this world of complicated webinar applications. There could be a problem though! No matter how simple a solution might be when you are in the meeting, it wont help if you have a complicated time getting people to meet you in there. While I’ve written before about how simple it is to access a QuickVisuals meeting for your attendees, it is important for you as the meeting organizer to be able to invite those attendees simply and easily. QuickVisuals takes that into account with a simply labeled INVITE link write on…

  • Give the right first impression with the right Conferencing service.

    rprovine@ganconference.com
    28 Oct 2009 | 7:11 pm
    Projecting the right image for your company is important on the Internet. Anyone can have a good website. It can be hard to tell the difference from an established large company, to a small startup. Outside of the Internet you can go to a company’s location and get a good feel for the kind of company they are. There is no mistaking a national chain retail store for a small sole proprietorship, or new partnership of old friends trying out an idea. On the Internet however, that is not always as apparent. The truth is in the details. When you are joining a company’s webinar, you can tell if…

    Last Friday GAN Conferencing had conducted a Webinar for a large event in the beautiful state of Vermont. I was fortunate enough to be there on site to insure the entire Webinar portion of their event went as planned. The coming together of a live and virtual event is a great benefit to all. The live attendees got the obvious benefit of being in the room with the presenters and having live Q and A session to have their questions answered directly. Also they got to enjoy a wonderful lunch provided and the beautiful scenery of the state of Vermont. The Virtual Attendees got to enjoy all the…

    Businesses don't grow by accident. It comes from the right planning, and wise decisions. One of the most important decision is always where is the best avenue to invest your resources. There are always improvements that can be made, but which are going to give the strongest return on you investment? Which technologies have time and again taken business in the right direction and brought in more productivity, while reducing expenses?According to a new paper released by Frost and Sullivan, collaboration tools offer one of the most productive ROI choices in business today.

    Sex, Marketing, and Conferencing. First we had Cisco's "How to Get a Girl" video demonstrating its telepresence system and then we had the lollipop-sucking women in Glowpoint's tradebooth some time ago, and now we have DimDim pimping webinar services by using sex objects that belong to the French with a video entitled "Sexy How To Make Money Online with Webinars.

  • The Launch of the BT Customer Experience Center in NYC

    BT is without peer as a telecom brand. Cosmopolitan and international, they do things with flair and style - and success. They're anything but stodgy. Last night's ribbon-cutting event for their new Customer Experience Center in the airy, transparent design of Renzo Piano's New York Times Building is a case in point. Hanif Lanai, CEO of BT Global Services cut the ribbon to formally open their new "Customer Experience Center" (CEC) for US customers. We were too buzzed distracted in sucking down Heinekens and failed to get that on video, but we did manage to do quickie interviews with BT…

  • Adobe Connect Introduces Some Cool New Features

    6 Nov 2009 | 1:49 pm
    Anyone who talks to me about web conferencing knows I am a big fan of Adobe Connect Pro. No, I am not on their payroll. I just find the interface incredibly elegant and unlike anything else out there. So it was with great anticipation that I attended a webinar yesterday announcing their new release, 7.5. As the webinar host noted, while a "dot" release, it still provides some pretty good bang for the buck.Now I must first offer the caveat that I haven't yet tested the new functionality but I think you'll agree with me that it is mouth watering.The first concept introduced was…

  • 6 Weeks To A Great Webinar

    20 Oct 2009 | 1:40 pm
    Wayne Turmel of Greatwebmeetings.com has written a book called 6 Weeks To A Great Webinar (available on Amazon). It ships as a paperback, but I read the electronic version.Wayne concentrates purely on public marketing / lead generation webinars. His approach is highly pragmatic, laying out specific tasks that need to be accomplished on a timeline, starting from six weeks before your scheduled webinar. One of the most useful features in the book is his inclusion of checklists and templates that are ready for a webinar producer to copy, revise, and use. For instance, Wayne not only gives…

  • Farking WebEx

    6 Oct 2009 | 6:15 pm
    Love it or hate it, you've got a lot of company when it comes to WebEx. When you're the market share leader, everyone loves taking pot shots at you. Here is a link to a hilarious thread on the FARK social commentary site. Some of it is mildly distasteful for work, but no explicit swearing and no nasty graphics. It seems to have been inspired by a text ad that WebEx ran on the site, sparking a major running commentary chain by users of the software and its competitors.Nothing of educational value, but fun reading nonetheless.

  • Survey Results - Live Webinars Aren't Worth The Time

    29 Sep 2009 | 2:40 pm
    I listened to the eg3.com webinar mentioned in the previous post. Host Jason McDonald presented findings from what he called a "virtual focus group" of 73 screened and qualified engineering respondents.For me, the most significant findings were those related to what type of presentation vehicle the respondents preferred. Jason said that live webinars scored low on preference compared to other options. Archived (recorded) webinars scored highly. But then the same question was asked as a hypothetical, "if time and money were of no importance."  This time, live webinars…

She’s no stranger to computers, but this new one is faster and has more bells and whistles, including a built-in video camera.

    Free Web Conferencing Tools for Teachers Awhile back Karen Schweitzer contacted me about an opportunity to guest post on my blog.  The topic of web conferencing is one that is near and dear to my heart and I have a wiki devoted to the topic of web conferencing/video conferencing in the classroom. Here is Karen’s post on web conferencing tools – thanks Karen! Web conferencing is a great way for teachers to integrate technology into their classrooms and their daily lives.

  • WebEx MeetMeNow is only available for already subscribed users

    16 Oct 2009 | 5:46 am
    Cisco have announced on their WebEx site that they will no longer be offering new WebEx MeetMeNow subscriptions. As an alternative, Cisco offer WebEx Meeting Center for web meetings, which we already tested in June 2008. Due to the new situation we will evaluate the services again and publish the updated results on our website. As a customer with a regular account we were surprised to find out that Cisco has not provided current customers with information other than what can be found on the website.

  • omNovia upgrades its features and earns a higher score

    21 Aug 2009 | 1:06 am
    Since our last rating in May omNovia has enhanced its range of features and also increased user friendliness by providing straightforward access to the already existing features. The tool now rates at a 7.3 of 10. Main areas of improvement were the number of features, the simplified set-up of meetings, and security. Although we found an overall improvement to omNovia there are still a few soft spots that pull the score down.
