Internet2 Commons Offers Universities Scalable, Easy-to-Use Video Collaboration Service
Internet2(R) today announced the launch of the first videoconferencing service from the Internet2 Commons, making group collaboration through videoconferencing as simple as traditional phone conferencing. Network technologies and H.323 video and audio standards combine to create an affordable and accessible service for Internet2's members and partners. "The Internet2 Commons grew out of our members' needs for effective tools for face-to-face meetings," said Ted Hanss, Director of Applications for Internet2. "Internet2 Commons subscribers can easily reserve videoconferencing ports for time-sensitive meetings such as remote research collaborations and regularly scheduled distance learning classes. They can also set-up multi-party videoconferences on the spur-of-the-moment."
