What’s New on the Technology Front

By Lain Ehmann

Things move quickly in the world of bits and bytes and remote conferencing technology is no exception. Here are some of the latest software tools to help your remote meetings run more smoothly.

InterCall’s Conference Place 2005. InterCall, one of the world’s largest providers of conferencing services, recently announced a liaison with Microsoft to make its conferencing software product more robust and easy to use. Conference Place users now can launch a Web-based conference through Microsoft Office programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Visio. “This new platform is going to make it easier to launch and host a Web conference, making virtual meetings more appealing for nonusers who have been reluctant to try the technology. The collaboration tools also will help users get more accomplished than if they had met in person,” says InterCall spokesperson Steve Carlson.
