Due to an oversight, Jeff Chandler’s Wordpress Weekly Segment did not air during this episode. You will find his audio segment in his show notes for this episode.

Last week, we had our Special Guest, Larry Genkin, the CEO of the Blogger and Podcaster Media Network on for an interview. He told us a lot about his new network including who their first member was, Bill Bartmann.

Tonight, I am pleased to bring on Kevin Micalizzi from DimDim.com. Kevin is the Community Manager for DimDim and he left some comments to a recent Web Conferencing Series that I posted about.

Here are some of the questions I will be asking tonight as well as questions from the chat room too:

1. What are the primary differences between the free version and the $100.00 branded version.

2. What is the server capacity for the free version and what has the up time been?

3. What is the maximum length of a meeting?

4. Any thought being given to increase the number microphones that can be given away without using the call bridge?

5. What browser do you recommend for the ability to use the “Share Desktop” feature? I’ve had difficulty with Safari, Chrome and IE 8 Beta.

6. Can a DimDim Session be encoded or embedded on a web site or blog?

7. Are the sessions recorded and accessible after the meeting is over?

8. Since the sessions are being hosted on DimDim’s servers, does the person hosting the event use a lot of bandwidth?

9. How does DimDim compare to other services, such as GoToMeeting?

10. Can DimDim be ran as a standalone product, say if one has their own server space, like with GoDaddy?

11. Could you address and describe the “Record” feature… what actually is recorded and what format is it recorded in?

I will also be fielding questions from the chat room during this interview and will run a demonstration of DimDim, with the help of Bruce Turner, during the interview as well.
