New Version of Adobe Connect Announced

On Monday, May 5, Adobe announced the new version of Adobe Connect.

To introduce customers to the features of the new version, Adobe is offering a live session on Thursday, May 8 at 1:00 PM (10:00 Pacific Time). If you are interested in attending the session, you will need to register at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/event/index.cfm?event=detail&id=1275620&loc....

New features that will be demonstrated include the ability to:

* Edit and download meeting recordings for on-demand viewing
* Quickly invite colleagues to join a meeting through integrated Instant Messaging
* Engage colleagues and learners through interactive break-out sessions
* Increase enterprise control with new compliance features

For those who cannot make the live session, Adobe has said that a recording will be available on adobe.com in the OnDemand Seminars section, although I don't see anything posted there yet:
