GregRuby@psalinger Thanks for participating Paul! #EventProfs -10:00 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@MikeMcCurry Controlling behavior is highly overrated!!! #eventprofs -10:00 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@cpudan So dan, if we do event in Virtualis, you going to help us with our avatars? Want mine as cool as yours. #eventprofs -10:00 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@GregRuby - thanks for moderating. gotta run now. #eventprofs -9:59 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt I love the concept!!! #eventprofs -9:59 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby Archive of tonight's chat will posted to the wiki later tonight or early tomorrow morning. #EventProfs -9:59 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry There are some gr8 PPTs on Whuffie & social media. It's about giving for the sake of giving, not in order 2 control #eventprofs -9:59 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan@MikeMcCurry Exactly #eventprofs -9:59 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby Some housekeeping announcements: Next chat on Thursday at 12N ET, 9A PT. #EventProfs -9:58 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@spkrinteractive I'm going to defer that to @KeepMeeting for any stats they may have come up with. #EventProfs -9:58 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@cpudan or a cocktail? #eventprofs -9:58 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt I am getting that #eventprofs -9:57 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan it determined who recd scarce items, like housing, a table in a crowded restaurant, or a good place in a line for a attraction. #eventprofs -9:57 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@cpudan It is amazing what I have learned in these chats... #EventProfs -9:57 PM May 12th, 2009
spkrinteractive@GregRuby Great to hear. Any way to measure the success of the #rallyday effort? It's a bit macro. #eventprofs -9:57 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@spkrinteractive so your currency is not your money but your integrity? #eventprofs -9:57 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@psalinger Thanks for sharing on the Trash Challenge. It is a worthwhile cause we all should support. #EventProfs -9:57 PM May 12th, 2009
spkrinteractive@MikeMcCurry I have not read the book, but.....whuffie is part of fictional reputation society #eventprofs -9:56 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@Jeffhurt - thanks. keep up the promotion!! #eventprofs -9:56 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@spkrinteractive Some really interesting items tweeted this morning, however. #EventProfs -9:56 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@spkrinteractive So it is a reputation analyzer? #eventprofs -9:55 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan in the Book: Whuffie replaces money & is a rating that measures how much esteem & respect other people have 4 you. #eventprofs -9:55 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger Go Green Meetings! How Your event can get invovled. http://tinyurl.com/o5gn84#eventprofs -9:55 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@spkrinteractive We are having our event in Baltimore on Thursday and we have over 500 rsvps so far. #EventProfs -9:55 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt and.... #eventprofs -9:54 PM May 12th, 2009
spkrinteractive@MikeMcCurry hard in 140 chars. Best to read wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whuffie#eventprofs -9:54 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger re trash challenge - main point is to get event ind to take real action and be solution not problem on eco impact #eventprofs -9:53 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@MikeMcCurry I missed that - good catch! What is Whuffie? #EventProfs -9:53 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry RT @ cpudan "Whuffie" Comes from a book called Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom Cory Doctorow #eventprofs -9:53 PM May 12th, 2009
spkrinteractive@GregRuby How did you feel about how #rallyday has gone? #eventprofs -9:52 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry Can someone please explain Whuffie #eventprofs -9:52 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger re trash challenge - more info on GMIC website http://www.greenmeetings.info/trashchallenge/challenge.html#eventprofs -9:52 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@GregRuby - might be hard 2 do in 140 char. wld love to see all event people participate though - http://www.greenmeetings.info#eventprofs -9:51 PM May 12th, 2009
spkrinteractive@Jeffhurt It seems that we are definitely headed in the direction of "Whuffie" as information travels faster #eventprofs -9:51 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby And did anyone in the group participate in any of the #RallyDay events to highlight the economic impact of tourism and meetings? #EventProfs -9:50 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@cpudan Great story "Whuffie." not read book but seen presos on it. #eventprofs -9:50 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@GregRuby - though Tony from Zappos might slightly disagree :-) #eventprofs -9:49 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@psalinger Paul, can you tell us a little about the Million Ton Trash Challenge? #EventProfs -9:49 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@GregRuby Completely in agreement with that #eventprofs -9:49 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan@Jeffhurt Your social credibility is called "Whuffie" Comes from a book called Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom Cory Doctorow #eventprofs -9:48 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby Would like to touch 2 other subjects fairly quickly, if you don't mind. #EventProfs -9:48 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby I think we are pretty much in agreement about SM is better for relationship building rather than sales. #EventProfs -9:48 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings@MikeMcCurry unhappy attendee/exhibitor may use forum 2 vent but u have no reputation to defend urself or improve relationships #eventprofs -9:48 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@crlambert Carla what is your take on all this? #eventprofs -9:47 PM May 12th, 2009
crowdvine@GregRuby Well, that was the original goal. But we find ancillary benefits all the time. #eventprofs -9:46 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby Take it 1 step further. Gain my trust, get my attention=build relationship. If I need your services, I'll consider U #eventprofs -9:46 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@MsStallings Can you elaborate on that please? #eventprofs -9:45 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger have to say I've met new people and gotten new ideas from being in social media more than real business rsults #eventprofs -9:45 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@MsStallings very worthwhile point #EventProfs -9:45 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings and the big point is, if you don't get a voice in SM, someone else will do it for you! you must establish a voice before this.. #eventprofs -9:44 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@crowdvine I would also imagine that it helps facilitate some f2f meetings as well. #EventProfs -9:44 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby I've bought mtg services through relationships built in social media. #eventprofs -9:44 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby Re sales/relationships in Social Media: Attention is today's currency, gain my trust and I'll give you my currency. #eventprofs -9:44 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@Jeffhurt I'm in the same boat. Probably more true for going to some new restaurants and "watering holes." #EventProfs -9:44 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt For me SM is a door leading to opportunities to meet quality ppl that can enhance both my business and personal life #eventprofs -9:43 PM May 12th, 2009
crowdvine@GregRuby Some of our conferences let people join their social network before registering. It results in extra registration. #eventprofs -9:43 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby I can say I'm a customer of sum products bcs of social media. Bought services bcs I met ppl through Social media. #eventprofs -9:42 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@crowdvine Great minds think alike! :-) #EventProfs -9:41 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan Not sure about the demo - maybe not enough numbers. But we have a very high approval rating. Everyone leaves with new ideas #eventprofs -9:41 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@crowdvine it is business communications essential #eventprofs -9:41 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby Has any of you had sales result from their SM presence, that you are aware of? #EventProfs -9:41 PM May 12th, 2009
crowdvine@GregRuby Yeah, that sounds like something Dale Carnegie would say. A lot of this SM stuff isn't really new. #eventprofs -9:40 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry WE live in such an exciting time in terms of communication options!!!! #eventprofs -9:40 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@MikeMcCurry - maybe I need to check out SL again then, cause we're not finding that to be true and not seeing any presence thr #eventprofs -9:40 PM May 12th, 2009
OliviaMitchell RT @JeffHurt: webinars are the toughest type of presentation around. Usually need 2-3x as many slides to keep aud attn #eventprofs -9:40 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby In marketplaces where simple sale no longer simple, building trust thru establishing & cultivating relationships core #eventprofs -9:40 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings@crowdvine very good point.. #eventprofs -9:38 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@GregRuby Well said Greg!!!! #eventprofs -9:38 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@MikeMcCurry I believe if you build the relationship, sales will follow. I had that theory before anyone ever heard of SM #EventProfs -9:38 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@psalinger They have a huge prescence on SL #eventprofs -9:38 PM May 12th, 2009
crowdvine@Jeffhurt that transparency is great for customer. They get to see if the vendor is spamming or making a thoughtful contact. #eventprofs -9:38 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@cpudan - what was demographic of that Oracle group and is that a big enough sample? #eventprofs -9:38 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@psalinger well a great place to look for that answer would be the American Library association #eventprofs -9:37 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@psalinger It is hard to keep up with all these other products. I need to research these two. #EventProfs -9:37 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@GregRuby I have to admit I was struggling with that question... don't see SM as a cash cow, but a relationship builder #eventprofs -9:37 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby I do think that social media allows 4 tansparency from customer 2 vendor. Vendor can easily pre-qualify from profiles #eventprofs -9:36 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan You should at least take a look and see all the applications . The Oracle grp we just had in said 21 out of 22 would come back. #eventprofs -9:36 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@MikeMcCurry - guess my real question is can you get a real business audience and get real ROI. or is just another fancy toy? #eventprofs -9:36 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry jeez the time flies in these chats... amazing #eventprofs -9:36 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@Jeffhurt We have a winner!!! I agree with you wholeheartedly. #EventProfs -9:36 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby Isn't that the magic ? everyone asks. I don't C Social media as platform 4 sales. IMO it's for building relationships #eventprofs -9:35 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@psalinger Interesting question.... #eventprofs -9:35 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@MikeMcCurry - could do same thing with UStream or Mogulus and a lot simpler, no? and real people vs. avatars #eventprofs -9:34 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings this is very interesting - how do supporters and exhibitors respond to virtual meetings? less or more interest? #eventprofs -9:34 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry Ooops that was 4 Mike. Most of blogtalkradio attendees listening over internet. We've not had any problems w/ sound #eventprofs -9:33 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@psalinger well for starters you could do a simulcast of an event there with interactivity paralleling the rl event #eventprofs -9:33 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby Let's roll this into our second topic of the night. How do we take social media and translate it into sales $$$. #EventProfs -9:33 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan@MikeMcCurry Thank you - I would be happy to do a VIP site inspection for everyone on #eventprofs - we can do a chat in the Grand Ballroom -9:33 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger Most of blogtalkradio attendees listening over internet. We've not had any problems with sound. #eventprofs -9:33 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry I am a RL musician and DJ and I do both gigs in SL #eventprofs -9:32 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@MikeMcCurry - what potential do you see? have to admit I find it a complete waste of time and not that great an experience #eventprofs -9:32 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@Jeffhurt That would be interesting. I think I need to do some work on my avatar first... #EventProfs -9:32 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt I think that would be awesome #eventprofs -9:32 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry I agree. We're still learning how to use SL for learning, events, networking, etc. #eventprofs -9:32 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@cpudan@gregruby what about us having an eventprofs mtg in virtualis? Would be interesting experience #eventprofs -9:31 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry I am an avid SL user... great place.. lots of potential there #eventprofs -9:30 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@cpudan - so it's essentially another emulation of physical environment, like other virtual tradeshow vendors? #eventprofs -9:30 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@cpudan I've been in 1 twice. Was an interesting experience. Something worth exploring more. #eventprofs -9:30 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt Jeff the reason I ask is cuz Skype is much better sound quality than phone, digital quality #eventprofs -9:30 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@cpudan And this is available 24-7, correct? #EventProfs -9:30 PM May 12th, 2009

crlambert@cpudan Virtualis is interesting concept, but the avatars are kind of creepy. #eventprofs -9:29 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@cpudan It is awesome... i have seen it #eventprofs -9:29 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry Re Skype: Don't know. We've never been asked that ? Most of our ppl call from work. Can have up 2 10 callers @ once #eventprofs -9:29 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan It is a 3d convention center in Second Life Owned and operated by professional planners - Boardrms, breakout rms, exhibit hall #eventprofs -9:29 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt ok so they can not call by skype then? #eventprofs -9:28 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings@Jeffhurt thanks so much 4insight-that will be helpful 2 bring 2 discussions at work. thought about replaying on shuttles at mtg #eventprofs -9:27 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry Sprkr & interviewer call from land line or cell phone. Interviewer controls everything via desktop. #eventprofs -9:27 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@GregRuby Great idea #eventprofs -9:26 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry Re blogtalkraido, you control everything via dashboard on internet. #eventprofs -9:26 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings@GregRuby for webcast covering a whole meeting, that was released after an event, approx 1K users in 7 months #eventprofs -9:26 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt ok so the interviewed person can only do it over conventional phone, not by skype or voip? #eventprofs -9:26 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MsStallings Good idea. We've found it cr8s excitement when we interview attendees. We do it several days/weeks b3 event #eventprofs -9:25 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@cpudan Dan - can you give us a brief overview of Virtualis? #EventProfs -9:25 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@cpudan Thanks Dan... will check it out later #eventprofs -9:25 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry Our attendees listen over internet, speaker and interviewer via phone. Callers have specific # as well. #eventprofs -9:24 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan This is an example of one of the programs we done for DL in my place - http://blip.tv/file/1391317/#eventprofs -9:24 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings we have discussed interviewing attendees to see which sessions they plan to attend, reviews afterwards, etc. have not decided #eventprofs -9:23 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt yes I know but that technology is via phone correct... or can you use skype too #eventprofs -9:23 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@MsStallings How many folks participate on your webcasts? Are they held on a regular basis? #EventProfs -9:23 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry blogtalkradio.com Totally free!!!! #eventprofs -9:23 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry we also found that we could do radio shows on getting most from conf, local city, etc. #eventprofs -9:22 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt do you do those via skype or regular phone? #eventprofs -9:22 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry Very well, especially for those spkrs that would fail with webinars. They do better when interviewed. #eventprofs -9:22 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby Sort-of. We had some1 interview ppl onsite during events. #eventprofs -9:21 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt how has the talk show concept worked for you Jeff #eventprofs -9:21 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings eventprofs great! we currently use audioconference/webcast series which have been successful. #eventprofs -9:21 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby And blogtalkradio creates a podcast to view on internet & mp3 for downloading to player. #eventprofs -9:21 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@Jeffhurt Have you used it inconjunction with live events as well? #EventProfs -9:20 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby We use it for internet radio interviews of spkrs. also has chat component & takes live callers #eventprofs -9:20 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@MsStallings Currently discussing distance learning - what works & what doesn't #EventProfs -9:20 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@MsStallings yes we sure are !!! #eventprofs -9:19 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@Jeffhurt - wld add that budget necessary as well with Altus - not necessarily cheap #eventprofs -9:19 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@Jeffhurt How does blogtalkradio fit into your DL plans? #EventProfs -9:19 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings eventprofs are you all discussing alternatives to live conferences tonight? sorry for being out of the loop. just signed on #eventprofs -9:19 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@LIevents Do you use Webinars now? #eventprofs -9:19 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@cpudan - what "event" was that? not familiar with Virtualis, I have to admit #eventprofs -9:18 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger@gregruby Altus gr8 when you have staff & time to edit and reformat content for future lrngs. #eventprofs -9:18 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@GregRuby - it's a learning mgmt system we use for after event content on demand that has some tools to transcribe content #eventprofs -9:17 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger We are currently using EventPartner thru CommPartners. I've used almost all of them. #eventprofs -9:17 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@MsStallings Welcome to the chat! #EventProfs -9:17 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MsStallings Welcome Christina. #eventprofs -9:16 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@psalinger I am not familar with Altus - what is it? #EventProfs -9:16 PM May 12th, 2009

crlambert@GregRuby Guess I am overthinking technical terms. #eventprofs -9:16 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby Absolutely not. We have a monthly fee with an all you can eat model. We use it for virtual committee mtgs too. #eventprofs -9:16 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@crlambert Yes. BTW, DL is distance learning. #eventprofs -9:15 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@crlambert Distance Learning #EventProfs -9:15 PM May 12th, 2009
LIevents Frequent user of Distance Learning via college & professional experiences I believe it allows 4 individuals 2 learn on the road! #eventprofs -9:15 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger Depends on your goal if moved to microsite. Ours are all hosted on mircrosite already. #eventprofs -9:15 PM May 12th, 2009
MsStallings#eventprofs Christina here, work at a not-for-profit medical assn in corporate relations and exhibits -9:15 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@Jeffhurt - what "platform" are you using? #eventprofs -9:15 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@Jeffhurt Do you find that the more robust platforms for DL incur greater time & expense than traditonal methods? #EventProfs -9:15 PM May 12th, 2009
crlambert@Jeffhurt or break it down into bit size modules offered over a period of days or weeks. #eventprofs -9:14 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@Jeffhurt - agree, but is it better then to rethink access and use something like Altus as an enablement tool? #eventprofs -9:14 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger Our platform tracks when they start, when they stop, how long they viewed, if they completed it, etc. #eventprofs -9:14 PM May 12th, 2009
crlambert@psalinger "DL"? Help please. #eventprofs -9:14 PM May 12th, 2009
cpudan Mr. Salinger, I just finished a group from Oracle 2 weeks ago in Virtualis - with great success - Oracle Ireland just called #eventprofs -9:14 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger once a live "event", or DL webinar is not live anymore, is it better to move content to a microsite to just view content? #eventprofs -9:13 PM May 12th, 2009
crlambert@MikeMcCurry We have the best PR team I have had the pleasure to work with. They did a lot of work with our Executive/BOD spkrs. #eventprofs -9:13 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt It's my experience that webinars are the toughest type of presentation around. Usually need 2-3x as many slides to keep aud attn #eventprofs -9:13 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger DL can also be through a computer based program--single person using it. #eventprofs -9:12 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@crlambert This isn't your father's convention any more, so to speak. #EventProfs -9:12 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@crlambert what about the speakers... what has been your experience with them Carla #eventprofs -9:12 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger@Jeffhurt - so, what happens when you lose the interaction? does the conent then just live in a vacuum? how do you track? #eventprofs -9:11 PM May 12th, 2009
crlambert@Jeffhurt interesting... #eventprofs -9:11 PM May 12th, 2009
crlambert Biggest challenge is internal, staff needs to understand that it isn't the same as a F2F meeting. #eventprofs -9:11 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@crlambert That's gr8. Sounds like a gr8 article, blog post or case study to me! #eventprofs -9:10 PM May 12th, 2009
rachelES@JeffHurt examples of interactive elements that work best? #eventprofs -9:10 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger and, is DL an event, or something different? how do you track and measure? how do you report on overall impact? #eventprofs -9:10 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@psalinger We find that both are needed. There's always an audience after the fact that wants to listen/view recording. #eventprofs -9:10 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@psalinger I always prefer live to on-demand. Your general session was a big hit in my office. #EventProfs -9:10 PM May 12th, 2009
crlambert@GregRuby Est. 200 for HOD; had around 3000 participate in our Public Policy Workshop in February, all via webinar. #eventprofs -9:09 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry With a robust platform, you can do a lot of interactivity. #eventprofs -9:09 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@Jeffhurt Agreed Jeff #eventprofs -9:09 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@GregRuby I've been doing DL, webinars for 10 years. Lots of practice & experience with them. #eventprofs -9:08 PM May 12th, 2009
MikeMcCurry@psalinger Agreed #eventprofs -9:08 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry I follow chat & moderate. Then pull into live presentation. #eventprofs -9:08 PM May 12th, 2009
GregRuby@crlambert How many people participated in your webinars? #EventProfs -9:08 PM May 12th, 2009
psalinger one question I would have is what are views of this relative to live vs. on demand #eventprofs -9:08 PM May 12th, 2009
Jeffhurt@MikeMcCurry Good presenters know how to engage audience w/interactivity thru text, talk, polls #eventprofs -9:07 PM May 12th, 2009

MikeMcCurry There needs to be some form of interactivity #eventprofs -9:06 PM May 12th, 2009
