"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often
we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one
which has been opened for us."

@TELEPHONE & WEB CONFERENCING
Telephone & Web Conferencing is being used increasingly to
conduct business meetings and professional communications. We
have partnered with Premiere Global Services to bring you some
monthly practical tips, supporting you and your business to make
the most of Conferencing tools.
TIP#1 September 2005: JARGON BUSTER
AUDIO CONFERENCE – A telephone conference, available as
automated or operator assisted, with full interaction for
participants, or listen-only for the audience, with limited and
controlled interaction through managed Q&A or feature controls.
AUTOMATED CONFERENCING – An automated telephone or audio
conference that are accessed using a telephone number, and an
automatic prompt for your passcode, without constant operator
assistance.
ONLINE EVENT – A term used for events held using audio
and/or web conferencing technology, traditionally organised as
venue based, face to face events.
WEBINAR – An online seminar, a webinar concentrates on
allowing one or several individuals to deliver information to an
audience, with controlled interaction, such as organised Q&A or
polling. The term is used for events that have traditionally
been organised and held as seminars, now being hosted using web
and audio conferencing technology.
WEB CONFERENCE – During your telephone conference,
visuals and/or collaborative tools are available to participants
via a secure internet address. A web conference can be a
collaborative and highly interactive meeting, a way to share
information in real time. Or simply the presentation of a slide
show during your conference call. A variety of conferencing and
collaboration features are available to suit your needs.
WEBCAST – Webcasts are primarily one way forms of
communication, where audio and visuals of your live event are
“streamed” to remote audiences, via the internet. Participants
are able to view and listen to a (lower quality/ delayed)
“broadcast” of your event on the internet.
