Online conferencing.
Filed under: Hmmm
I have been hearing several radio commercials about a new Cisco product that seems really interesting. It supposedly makes online conferencing easier. I hadn’t really given it much thought until I began to think about the possibilities of it. After thinking a bit I took a few minutes to look into it and thought I would share some of the ideas that I found or came up with. You do need equipment like Polycom audio conferencing stuff but you might just have all you need already.
Obviously with the web conferencing, like WebeX you can hold a business conference but there is a lot more to it. If you have a large family, wouldn’t it be nice to see them all? How much would it cost to have a family reunion where family members lived in different parts of the world? Probably quite a bit. However, with a web conference you might be looking at forty and up to be able to see and talk with each other for awhile. Heck, it could even be a regular family thing to keep the family together and see what everyone is up to. I think there are even free online conferencing tools, although I don’t know how reliable or secure they are.
The other thing you could do is run a business, you know maybe put together some classes, advertise them and then set up a web conference to teach them. You wouldn’t have to go anywhere and you would be able to provide one on one instruction in most any subject you wanted. You could even provide counseling or coaching. You could discuss new ideas and concepts, or tutor people. There are a lot of possibilities with it. Heck with PayPal you could set up a pre-payment as well. Maybe have the classes ready and then once the payment hits your account you could begin, or however you wanted to work things. The chances are pretty good that by now you already have some ideas in mind.
