SlidesNow!, the first application that allows any Mac OS X user to deliver slides live on the Internet, has been released. SlidesNow! was designed to work with Apple's QuickTime Broadcaster to deliver both slides and live video in a single browser window. There are no plugins (other than QuickTime 6.02+ for video) or players to download. Viewers only need to have Javascript enabled browsers to view the content. Presentations are viewable on both Mac and Windows platforms. SlidesNow! also includes a built-in chat board, enabling viewers to respond with questions and feedback to the presenter. While QuickTime Broadcaster provides the best experience for the viewer, it is not a requirement to use SlidesNow! The presenter may use the chat board or a phone connection to communicate with viewers. |
