Online Webinar
An online webinar brings interaction to the forefront of your seminar
October 26, 2005

Technologies that allow for the sharing of information in
an easy way are changing the face of business
communications. Collaboration takes place not just across
the country, but across the globe. It's important, then, to
have the type of technology available that allows for your
communication to be a smooth, hassle-free experience. An
online webinar is one way to accomplish this.
The word "webinars" is short for "web-based seminars." A
seminar itself is characterized by interaction and the
sharing of ideas. Unlike a webcast, a web-based seminar
allows you to discuss and interact with meeting
participants. You are able to truly communicate
interactively instead of just transmitting ideas one way.
The web-based seminar has many purposes. For example, it
can be extremely helpful in gathering information from a
focus group. It's also a useful training tool because it
offers a chance for those being trained to ask questions in
an interactive setting. It's more interesting for those
attending because it's a participatory setting, which in
turn makes the experience more productive and worthwhile for
you, as the feedback is timely and pertinent.
All you need is a computer, an Internet browser, and a
phone line, which allows you to listen to the seminar.
WebEx is one hosting solution for your web-based seminar
needs that ensures a high-quality, cost-effective
presentation. If you'd like to learn more about what it
