More Useful Tools from Zoho: Zoho Meeting (Beta)

The Zoho team never slows down.

Just about every week Zoho, these developers of high quality web-based tools (almost all free), are either enhancing what they already offer or releasing something new. Examples? These recent posts will give you more of an idea of what we're talking about.
1: Zoho Creator ||| 2: Zoho Notebook (Wow!) ||| Zoho Wiki

Today, yet another new beta release: Zoho Meeting.
That's right, you can now use Zoho to assist when conducting online meetings/conferences/webinars/etc. Technically, the service is not new, it's been in a private beta since March but today Zoho Meeting becomes available to all.

This video offers a brief tour.

Zoho Meeting is free (at least for the present time) and with budgets being the way they are, this might be the ideal tool for libraries and other info pros. No word on what (if any amount) the service will cost later on.

As you know, the ResourceShelf team is spread across the world and we're going to test Zoho Meeting for some upcoming events. More soon.

Fast Facts About Zoho Meeting:

+ Full integration with Zoho Show (Zoho's presentation service, also free) and Zoho Chat.
+ Works with any OS
+ Three viewers available (Active-X, Java and Flash)
+ Meeting Viewer can be embedded into web pages and applications
+ Participants can choose to control presenter’s desktop (if agreed upon)

Kudos to the Zoho team.

Click to view the article The fallacy of information overload
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?


Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?

Alacra Compliance saves time by aggregating information from both free and fee-based sources and enabling users to conduct an accurate federated search across these sources (coined “simultaneous search” by Alacra).
