This was my unartistic take on VSee’s “corporate” structure (I don’t think we’re big enough to be corporate) after seeing Manu Cornet‘s hilarious comic Organizational Charts, picturing the organizational structures of major companies like Facebook and Google. Guess which one is Milton 🙂
Last week, Milton, Yuen-lin, Julio, and Casey attended the big Primerica convention at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta. It’s like the mother of all conventions with exciting speakers, exhibits, and over 60,000 in attendance –a great opportunity to show off VSee’s impact and versatility as a sales tool.
When I read this article praising Apple for delaying the release of its iPhone 4 until they got the product “right,” it reminded me of a similar point that came up at one of our meetings. Again, it was a product usability versus doing business disagreement. Who Would Eat A…
On Friday, I wrote about a social networking project, Commkit, that some VSee people are involved in, and I just wanted to share this video screen capture of i-Act co-founder and director, Gabriel Stauring, talking about the life-changing impact this social networking access has had on the children in the…
At VSee we have several people who are passionate about improving the situation of refugees around the world. They volunteer their time, knowledge, and resources to make a difference in the lives of refugees. In the past VSee has taken a very active role in supporting the cause, so in…
HP must be sighing in relief at finally getting rid of their Halo visual collaboration business unit since they practically handed it to Polycom for $89 million. Is It A Win-Win Deal? This means Polycom gets a whack at the telepresence market while HP dumps responsibility for its lackluster product,…
Last September, Frost & Sullivan came up with a new way to measure the “collaborativeness” of visual collaboration technology. It looks like a plug for Magor Telecollaboration dressed in pseudo-scientific language to me; but, it does suggest a quantitative way of analyzing whether a collaborative product is worth its return…
Over the last few weeks of working at VSee, I’ve been realizing that VSee is more than just a videoconferencing tool. It’s a video collaboration tool. Of course, it can do the things that videoconferencing does, but on a much more dynamic and work-friendly scale. It’s the difference between a…
A few articles ago, Milton wrote about how hard it is to get noticed and remembered in today’s work world because of all the information noise coming at us. This really goes double for remote workers since they are rarely seen or heard in their work places. Many feel isolated…
One of the big successes in videoconferencing has been its use in judicial courts. The federal courts have long been using the technology for such things as arraignments, bail hearings, post-conviction hearings, and appellate court arguments. Washington and Lee University Law school faculty Aaron Haas notes that in 1972 an…
Skype, after holding off on plans to launch an initial public offering IPO and amidst rumors of possible acquisition by Cisco, Google, and Facebook, is being acquired by Microsoft for an unsolicited offer of 8.5 billion in cash. Many analysts feel it’s a bit more than the company is worth…
Maybe it’s the $4 per gallon gas prices or perhaps people are tired of traveling 6-8 hours for one 45-minute meeting. Maybe it’s the advances in networking technologies and services or the pricking of our environmental consciences. Maybe it’s because the world really is a global village today or because…
Milton discussed in some earlier posts the importance of smiling and eye contact in facilitating video mediated communication. At the heart of these issues is the issue of building video trust. The Research On Video Trust The good news is that according to video trust studies, people using only video…
