Netpoke for Web Conferencing is very simple to use and is a great way to get your message across to one or one hundred people complete with visuals in real time. Your can present a PowerPoint slide show or share out your desktop to really show what you mean.
Web Conferencing Made Simple
ReadyConference is a conference call service that is great for those business conference calls where it’s crucial that everything goes right. With the web based host controls you can easily manage your calls with up to 125 participants. The web based host controls allow you as the moderator to to have much better control over the call as opposed to only using the phone keypad. Yes, you can still use the keypad for your conferencing shortcuts, but the web based control panel takes it just that one step further. Watch the demo in the video below and you’ll see what I mean.
Another handy feature for those big calls is the ability to record your calls on the fly, simply by pressing *22 (star 22) on your keypad.

Regardless if your meeting is local, across the country or overseas we all know the cost of travel has gone up substantially over the last year or so, due to the increased fuel costs.

I just watched a most inspirational video on a man from the USA who lost his job as a computer programmer to and Indian company. He traveled to India to get his job back. After watching the entire video it made me realize what great opportunities we have here in the US and Canada and how well we have it.

- Would you like to improve your communication and public speaking skills?
- Worried about your next big presentation?
- How confident are you?
 Do butterflies attack your stomach whenever your asked to speak before a group? Can you confidentally express your thoughts and ideas? Do you have the nerve to ask your boss for a raise? People who get ahead in life are those that who can communicate effectively. Wouldn’t you like to develop this priceless skill? Now you can!
These are some excerpts from some of the Toastmasters promotional material. I have been a member of Sunrisers Toastmasters in Nanaimo for about 1.5 years and can easily say that all of the above is true. Being in sales I have done many presentations over the years. I always thought I did a fairly good job at them prior to joining Toastmasters. I now know my presentations and public speaking skills have improved many many times over. When I started I used to say “umm” and “ahhh” a lot and never realized it. I now can easily get through a speech or presentation with ever saying “umm” or “ahhh” once. There are many other improvements I have noticed. I’ll update you with more on a future post.
If you are in the Nanaimo area and want to know more about Toastmasters and what is can do for you please visit our club web site at Sunrisers Toastmasters or visit the new web site dedicated to all the clubs in Nanaimo, Nanaimo Toastmasters (www.nanaimotoastmasters.info)Â
I’ve always disliked inkjet printers, mostly because they are so expensive to run. Unless you really need to do a lot of color printing I suggest stay away from them.
Here is an interesting something very interesting about inkjet printers that I never knew.
I suggest to buy a cheap monochrome laser printer. You’ll get your money’s worth. Â
I entered another speech Toastmasters speech contest a couple of weeks ago with my speech entitled “Whatever Happened to the Future?”. Yesterday I won the area contest and competed in the Division contest this weekend.
The City of Nanaimo is one of the first Cities in Canada to adopt this type of Emergency Notification System. If there is an emergency or an event that requires immediate public notification the system will simultaneously call thousands of phone numbers and play a notification message when the phone is answered by a live person or it will leave a message. You must first register for service on the City web site.
At this point they are still trying to increase the number of people signing up for the service as registrations have not been as quick as they hoped. I guess that people won’t see the value of a service like this until they need it. I would also assume that once it is used in an emergency situation those that did not sign up will be quickly flocking to the web site to sign up.
If you live in Nanaimo I suggest you take 2 minutes to sign up for the service.
If you are a City that is interested in learning more about this type of service , you can call us at 1-888-843-5778.
We just updated our website with a new product called Irgent. Would your community benefit from a system like this? Watch the video here.
This could save many lives in your city or town. Personally I would love to be contacted if a dangerous situation arises that may concern me or if there is any way I could be of help to others in a difficult situation.
