First we see the TELECONFERENCING ....... !

If you ever use a three way phone call you've already teleconferenced.There are two types of conference call.1(Meet-Me)& 2(Ad-Hoc).
Meet-Me :-Meet-Me conferencing requires participants to call a special phone number on a given day and time and enter an access code to join the teleconference.
Ad-Hoc :-conferencing requires a moderator to call each of the attendees individually and connect them together.



Teleconferencing has endless applications in the business world, from large corporate conference calls for shareholder earnings reports to four salesmen in four different cubicles discussing a new product.
Teleconferencing advantages are that the technology is familiar to anyone who uses a phone, it's easy to set up, and it offers good audio interactivity for small groups. Its disadvantages are that it greatly limits collaboration and interaction for larger groups, and that audio-only presentations are often less engaging to attendees.

Know we see the VIDEOCONFERENCING ....... !

This is the simplest form of videoconferencing, where the presenter appears on the screens of all the attendees in a small Web cam video window. For small groups, some software programs offer the "Brady Bunch" effect, in which all of the attendees appear on the screen in separate Web cam windows.

There is a difference, however, between this simple form of videoconferencing and what are known as Web casts. Web casts are professional-quality online video presentations, usually for larger groups and with less interactivity between participants.
