Week 3 Online Meetings

Well, this weeks lesson was kind of a slow go for me. It's not that I don't find it interesting, it's just finding the time to sit down and listen to the archived webinar. I decided to listen to one that was recommended in our lesson. It was the 25 Technologies to Watch by Stephen Abram. The webinar itself was full of great information. Some of the technology he discussed, I was pretty familiar with. There are other items, however, that I plan on researching and learning more about. I'm sure there are some things that would be very beneficial to know.

I think on-line meeting are an excellent way for people to communicate and educate. It is hard for people to travel sometimes and it is expensive if you have to go very far. This makes it convenient and accessible to just about everyone as long as you have access to a computer and a headset/speakers. I really think that this type of meeting will continue to grow in the next 10 years. It gives you the ability to participate in a conference anywhere in the United States and possibly the world.

  1. I thought about listening to that one too, but I listened to the Iluminar one. Mainly because Janet wanted us to, so I figured I could kill 2 birds with one stone. Oh, it was also great meeting you today!
