Couple the power of NING with the capability of Elluminate to bring members together for sharing information, planning, and problem-solving. How? Consider the limited, free, cross-platform service provided for by Elluminate, or the fuller, yet economic version.

ELLUMINATE:

http://www.elluminate.com

Free for three (3) simultaneous connections. Hint: Three connections could be equal to three rooms with ten people each. The cost for additional connections is very reasonable…as low as $33.00/month.

To view a recorded demonstration, or to schedule a live, online demonstration go to http://www.elluminate.com/demo/live_demo.jsp

I’d be glad to go through these services with you and your staff. Please contact me to schedule a demonstration. Sessions include file sharing, PowerPoint-sharing, audio and video, co-browsing, markups on whitespace, and more!

  1. Charlie--Take a look at our latest venture--a social learning network platform at www.learncentral.org. Let me know if you think its features would allow it to be a replacement for Ning (private groups are free). Or if we're missing key functionality, let me know that as well. Thanks!

  2. BTW, forgot to mention that free Elluminate vRooms are built into LearnCentral.
