Does Videoconferencing Work?

International Collaboration seems to have been the theme for the last 10 days at Trovus.

Firstly, our own Jon Mell has been at Lotusphere for the last week in Florida (more to follow) - getting the latest thinking and product developments around the IBM suite of products dedicated to social networking and collaboration within companies. There is truly great work being done but I will leave Jon to provide details of that.

The second area has been Trovus securing our first international client in the USA - a large property consultancy. What was good for us around this was that our first workshop was delivered by 100% virtual means - 7 people from our client and 3 of us delivering a 4 hour workshop by videoconference.

The experience?

Well it seemed to work very well - we have had some great feedback and once you settle into the technology (apart from Ed trying to shout all the way across the Atlantic), it was very smooth.
