Robin has actually included a "transcription" of the conversation that took place with his two special guests, David Wooley of thinkofit and Jay Cross of Internet Time Group, with whom Robin had an interesting and colorful conversation lasting over 30 minutes.
Robin's questions to these gentlemen centered around some few key issues:
a) What are the trends that you see at work in shaping the collaboration and conferencing tools appearing on the market today?
b) Who do you think has a bigger say in how tools are developed by collaboration, conferencing and live presentation companies today? The end users or the companies creating the technologies?
c) Is video an essential component of live conferencing sessions or is it something we can easily do away in serious, formal business meetings?
d) Open standards and interoperability, are they important?
e) What are critical the privacy issues that will surface as soon as these new communication and collaboration technologies become more ubiquitous while starting to replace more traditional means of exchange?
f) What does the future of conferencing, online collaboration and live presentation technologies look like?
