Corbin Ball Joins The Board of ConferZone

 ConferZone Unveils Industry Board During Web Event

DENVER, (Aug. 2, 2004) -- ConferZone, the online community for conferencing, now has access to a virtual board of e-conferencing experts. This virtual gathering of seasoned e-conferencing professionals are a click away to answer questions on a variety of topics, including getting started with conferencing, using e-conferencing for training and development programs, and adding streaming media to presentations. With a three-pronged approach, this group of conferencing experts will participate in editorial discussions through one-on-one meetings and virtual roundtables, and broadcasts through live web events and special programs.  In addition, they will participate in creating an exclusive online e-conferencing guide.

“E-conferencing is the hottest technology trend this century – yet the industry does not have a strong association or guidance board,” said Stephanie Downs, president, ConferZone. “As the top e-conferencing portal, ConferZone is stepping up to fill that void. We need terminology standardization, industry vision and a stronger focus on organization.  The Industry Board will provide a forum for end users to access experts that are guiding this industry.”
