AT&T has announced the latest version of the AT&T Connect Mobile Conferencing APP or simply AT&T Connect on the iPhone. This latest version is a big step forward as it allows the participant to view contents on the white board. Other features in this release are:
Emoticons
Raise Hand
Respond to polls
AT&T Connect now supports attendees via its traditional windows-based participant application, non-windows (Mac)participants using the browser-based participant app and now, the iPhone participant application.
This increases the reach of any AT&T Connect webinar. However, it adds additional complexity that webinar organizers need to manage as the level of support for features and content varies across each of the AT&T Connect participant options. Careful planning and communications with your audience is key to conducting a successful event.

We will post more analysis and reviews on the AT&T Connect iPhone App in the near future. If you are using the new AT&T Connect iPhone App and want to share your experience – please let us know!
The Intellor Event Management System (EMS) established in support of Interwise marketing events and now used to manage AT&T Internal and Marketing events has been renamed from events.interwise.com to events.intellor.com.
The domain change was made to remove the Interwise name from the event URLs. The new domain name is events.intellor.com.
Impact: –Low– The events.interwise.com domain is being forwarded to the new events.intellor.com domain
Additional Information: The events.intellor.com is a instance of Intellor’s Event Management System dedicated to the hosting and management of AT&T webinars as provided under the 2010 partnership agreement between AT&T and Intellor Group.
Is there a new technology race starting in the hotel industry? Three weeks after the Marriott, Cisco, and AT&T telepresence announcement comes this announcement by Starwood, Cisco, and Tata. Is this a case of an industry still suffering from reduced business travel and reduced conference bookings finding a new strategy? Telepresence is not going to make up the shortfall however; such a strategy could become a differentiator in attracting new business. It will be interesting to see how the hotel chains position telepresence and how they will package it with traditional products. Offering telepresence press events (see sample below) to conference organizers could be a starting point.
Intellor Group is providing webcasting services for Pittcon 2010 (www.pittcon.org) which is being held in Orlando, FL this year from February 28th – March 5th.
Pittcon is the world’s annual premier Conference and Exposition on laboratory science. It is organized by The Pittsburgh Conference on Analytical Chemistry and Applied Spectroscopy, a Pennsylvania not-for-profit educational corporation which is comprised of the Spectroscopy Society of Pittsburgh (SSP) and the Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP).
Pittcon attracts nearly 20,000 attendees from industry, academia and government from 90 countries worldwide and is managed by a committee of volunteers and a 10-person staff. Proceeds from Pittcon fund science education and outreach at all levels, kindergarten through adult.
The Pittsburgh Conference donates nearly a million dollars each year in the form of science equipment grants, research grants, scholarships and internships for students, awards to teachers and professors, and grants to public science centers, libraries and museums.
Many talks will be recording via Intellor’s Live Event Capture Service and posted to an attendee-only website. This is an awesome service for multi-track conference goers because they can catch all the talks that that they missed during the day by logging onto the site later that night in their hotel rooms or anytime after they get home. Overall, this drastically increases the number of talks available to attendees and extends the value of the coference tremendously. Way to go Pittcon!!!
