representation and avatars. You would categorize the space from faceless (WebEx) to 3D/complex (Second Life) and your solution is this new category of approachable 3D. You get the feeling of presence and personality, without the complexities of Second Life.

Richard Nantel of Brandon Hall recently posted about average LMS prices . A ‘low-cost’ LMS starts at an average of $58K. That’s the low price. Which is still a whole LOT of money. And “in times like these…” Why pay for a pricey LMS when you can Moodle or Drupal or Sakai ? Why do companies continue to pay huge dollars for products that are now being offered for free?

If not doing it in 3D outside of the world - why are you getting into 3D world. - If you are just doing a meeting - why go through the effort of 3D? - Lately going to meetings in 2nd life - powerpoint. Why are we not using webex, Adobe Connect? - Ad Hoc discussions - if there is a room set aside - can do ad hoc if folks hang out in the area Remember - there is a technology hurdle to implement this.

The Best from the eLearning Learning Community

Cisco just released the WebEx Meeting Center for the iPhone , and it looks impressive. Very impressive. Sadly, my organization is locked into a WebEx competitor’s product so I don’t have extensive experience with the tool, but I have used WebEx to participate in vendors’ webinars. Have a look at Cisco’s video demo here , and then get the app for your iPhone (for free) in iTunes .
think that Second Life is not going to turn out to be the winner because of technical issues, e.g., firewalls. However, I think that the next generation of Second Life will displace tools like WebEx for many online events. Once you add in presence audio (you hear people close to you) and whiteboarding tools, it will make for very interesting opportunities.
Just saw this : Earlier this month, Microsoft announced it was finally adding voice capabilities to its Live Communication Server . And now Cisco is adding hosted collaboration to compete with Microsoft's hosted service known as Live Meeting . This makes me wonder what these systems will start to look like in a couple of years and whether folks like Elluminate will be able to compete.

I'm sure that once you add presence-based audio (meaning you can hear people who are close to you) that WebEx style systems will begin to look more like second life so you can have easier break-out sessions.
Now that Second Life has audio, there is a really interesting capability to have natural break-outs during online sessions that just never seems to work well in the current batch of tools, e.g., WebEx, LiveMeeting, etc.
