| "I've never participated in a webcast." |
| "All that technology; It's really hard to understand." |
| "I just don't have the time to learn to do it." |
Well, chances are you already understand webcasting better than you think and you probably completed each step logging into a webcast in your first ten minutes at your desk today without even knowing it.
One of the first things you did today was probably to click on your e-mail program icon, and then enter your user name and password. Logging into a webcast consists of exactly those three steps, only they have different names:
- Instead of clicking on your e-mail program icon, you click on a link in an e-mail
- Then, instead of entering a user name, you enter your 'Meeting Key'
- And finally, instead of entering a password, you enter your 'Meeting ID'
Another thing you probably did in your first ten minutes at work is use your telephone. You may have even been dialing a number listed in the body of an e-mail and that is exactly what is done to connect to the audio portion of a webcast. It's as simple as dialing a phone number, then entering an extension. Again, they have slightly different names:
- Dial the toll free number provided with the registration e-mail
- Then, enter the 'Participant Code' which is the same thing as dialing an extension
That's it!! You are now ready to participate in a webcast! It's as easy as Log On, Call In, Interact! |
