With more and more people opting for a virtual office as compared to the traditional office set ups, telecommunication has become very important.

Files, your desktop, a browser or even a power point presentation over the Internet can be shared. Thus more IT companies have been inventing newer and more efficient ways to allow this communication to flow with ease.

A presentation, lecture, workshop or seminar can be transmitted over via the Internet, which can be one or two-way.
