[gerrymck]

Colleagues/

An associate of mine from our College of Veterinary Medicine is in the
process of evaluating Web Conferencing Systems for their Distance Education
/Learning program.

In addition to an extensive literature review that I am conducting, he/we
greatly are greatly interested in Any and All Personal/ Professional
Recommendations of Web Conferencing Systems that others currently are using
and/or formerly used for Distance (or Other) Education(al) initiatives.

We are particularly interested in Comparisons Of Web Conferencing Systems.

Please Post Any and All Recommendation On The Blog Entry At

Libraries At

BTW: Wikipedia Has A Nice Comparison Chart That Compares Systems:

License / Capacity / Linux / Mac OS X / Microsoft Windows / Audio Support /
Video Support / Chat Support / Desktop Sharing Support / Upload PPT / Upload
PDF

BTW: Citations/Links To Recent/Key Reports/Literature On Web Conferencing
Systems Would Be Most Appreciated / Thanks !!!
