Voxwire is not great for application sharing

We noted that this has worked in SA even though VOIP is not allowed there.

We want to try and test with friends in Nairobi as a VOIP solution would be great

Lee has used WebX for application share. What we'll see today is lower in cost. Easier, access simpler and allows more people to do stuff without having a "big fat wallet" to do it.

You can talk like we are now with people all over the world. Can show presentations in the browser window.

Note: Must be careful who has control of synch or "follow me" mode - turn off follow when done, and establish protocols for turn taking, etc.

Next we go to a new place, to Australia. Maybe some rought terraine, some download. May be rough for Tony. Automatic download.

This next tool is Voicecafe. Not many people resell it.

Can reset URLs for a web tour in this product. Helps reduce stress, avoid typos, etc.

You can preview, present and then have people "follow" you in the tour.

Some question about being able to co-browse password protected sites

Next stop is Glance Networks www.glance.net

* Full application sharing
* higher bandwidth requirements
* can co browse password protected sites
* VOIP? Not sure it has VOIP built in.

I had it wrong. Glance is ONLY application sharing. So combine it with VOIP, etc. Sorry! ;-) This application takes a lot of bandwith. With a good connection, almost real time.

For those of you subscribed to this QT via email, I just realized this may be a spamming sort of experience. However, I did not want to wait too long between posting my notes in case something crashes -- which happens with tours!

Page sharing without some of the usual overhead issues.

This seems to run slow for me. Page loads in fits and starts.

1 on 1 page sharing. When you scroll it scrolls on their side. Very low bandwidth, works well. There is a quick demo on their home page.

For this you need good annotation skills and tools. Robin hasnt seen tool that allows for pointing, drawing lines, sketching or highlightin on that page.

Nancy thinks there may be a tool that comes with http://www.wacom.com tablet

Also Training tools from http://www.www.milori.com.com from Milori. Robin really likes the tools. Great annotation tools.

HP Virtual Classroom has some good annotation tools. Maybe we can tour that after the new year!

Our final show in Voicecafe was a great card trick from Robin. If you did not take the tour, you missed a good one!

Then we went back to Robin's Voxwire room for our final experience. Robin has something that will blast our ears to jar us. Some craziness. To a website that will jar us a bit.

When we get there, a little box will open up. You can close that one. Will be sound a music. Will be prompted to click on the center bottom to enter it.

Thanks Nancy for leaving this very fulsome trail through the jungle. When I get some time I hope to follow in your footsteps and leave some comments from the antipodean’s perspective :-)
