Participants from around the globe (363+ registered sites!) join the Megaconference (interactively, via videoconference), or view a live one-way stream available to anyone with an Internet connection. Now in its sixth year, the Megaconference has been a hallmark event for learning about cutting-edge uses of videoconferencing. This year's program focuses on the theme "Let's Talk: Global Communications, Innovation, and Participatory Videoconferencing." Megaconference also pushes the state of the art in videoconferencing, allowing both H.323 and SIP software participants for the first time. Watch Megaconference live all day today!
