With the proliferation of VoIP technology to generate web conference calling services, the latest conference calling technology news is encouraging for budget maintenance, reducing travel costs, and gathering the right information at the right time to make informed decisions. Web conferencing combines the best elements of face-to-face meetings with audio teleconferencing, which makes the conference experience better because of the web conferencing tools designed to enhance the quality and productivity of the meeting.
For example, during a web conference, data is transmitted via the Internet to the participants' computers, and this data sharing lends itself to stronger collaborative sessions. Small businesses need to maximize their workforce in order to gain the most return for their dollar and by using web conferencing services, their bottom line and competitive edge should improve.

Up until recently, you needed an enterprise grade video conferencing hardware solution costing thousands of dollars to achieve near broadcast quality video conferencing. Polycom has changed all that with their new PVX software (about $150) which brings the same type of video quality to personal computers (with CPUs above a Pentium 4 2.2 or Pentium M 1.6) as the expensive hardware based solutions. Perhaps if Sean Maloney of Intel had used PVX to demonstrate video conferencing over WiMAX using his own companies flagship CPUs, he wouldn't have had such a embarrassing display of poor picture quality and jerky video in front of a thousand Interop attendees. I personally winced every time Maloney kept boasting that it was "8 mbps video" that we were being treated to when it looked more like broken-up 128 kbps video being projected on the wall. It was ironic that Maloney pinned the blame on the CPU for the choppy video instead of the WiMAX network he was demonstrating because one has to wonder what message Maloney was giving about his own CPUs.
