A new era of web conference service

Some in the corporate world may still remember the picture phone rolled out by AT&T in the 1960s, long before the concept of web conference calls - or even the Internet, for that matter - was on anyone's radar. The World's Fair debut of that unit set imaginations on fire, but the price tag put a virtual wet blanket over the hot new product. At $160-plus per month, the phone attracted few customers. (Read on: We will discuss more of these hits and misses in the technologies that predated web conferencing, host services and other business communications issues in articles to follow.)

Happily, these days it's easier than ever to be connected. The age of web conference service has put businesses in the United States in the same virtual room with businesses in Tokyo, London, Paris - anywhere in the world you want your business to be - through audio, video and Internet-based global conferencing.

The expression "No man is an island" is especially true in the business world. The far-reaching technology of web conference calls means that that "island" can move as far "inland" as it needs to go. This communication tool can be the best friend a business owner ever had - and a jet-setting friend at that! But a business' conferencing services solution is a bit more complex than simply picking up a phone, or sitting in front of a webcam to chat up a potential customer or partner in another city or continent, or a conference podcast.
