We can now video conference with people at work....

Its only taken since October last year to get it going, and many attempts and false information, and an extra £2k or so.

That god for that..... (as somehow it became my 'problem' to fix.....)

Grr!

(But we did get to wave at our Japanese colleagues for a bit - which was rather cool I have to admit!)

Congratulations on getting it working.

We did this at work a few years ago, everybody used it for a while, now it's nothing more than an expensive ornament gathering dust!

I used to hate video conferencing between the various offices, you couldn't sit there making "wanker" gestures to colleagues about the person talking or playnoughts and crosses on the whiteboard while chatting with people at other sites any more without getting caught.

Same at our site.

Big demand from Management for us to have the latest in Cideoconf technology, so we got it and set it up and it got used a lot for teh first month... and now sits unused. I don't think it has been used for 6 months. Complete waste of money.

And yet, Management now are demanding we look at a US$60,000 per site more advanced video conf system.

*sigh*

I have a feeling that might happen here too.... But we do have weekly conference calls with Japan - and the audio quality if nothing else is better on the VC....

That is a good point... Luckily I don't have to do the conference calls, and I really don't care if my colleagues have to actually behave themselves now or not :P
