Lync 2010 and Webex

For my Web 2.0 course, Dr. Medlin asked the question: What do you think of these products and could you see using them for business or personal use?


After watching the Lync 2010 and Webex overview videos, I feel that doing business without this new form of communication is pointless. Maybe not pointless, but much less organized and more time consuming. They enable employees to share everything much easier than past methods of team communication  and collaboration software. 

Businesses can greatly benefit from using both of these products. It would encourage and enable strong communication within teams and keep everyone in those teams on the same page in regards to a particular project. I see more use for these products commercially and less for personal use.
