What are Webinars and Why Should You Care?

Web Conferencing is a meeting or seminar held over the internet. One can use almost anything - audio, video or even text-based interactions - which are conducted in real time! Cool huh?

In its simplest form, web conferencing can be via a medium of text based 'chats' using Yahoo Messenger or Microsoft NetMeeting or inviting others to converse and being able to communicate in real-time. Such 'chats' can be enhanced by the addition of a simple web camera, and bingo, you have your very own amateur web conferencing setup.
