Vivu, a Silicon Valley company focused on the video conferencing space, is bringing its services to an audience that's already comfortable with video conversations over the Internet: Skype users.
The ViVu service is hosted on the cloud and can scale from small web conferences to corporate training sessions, as well as large video events that accommodates thousands of participants.
Analysts predict that the video conferencing space will continue to gain momentum as business customers continue to look for cost-effective tools for real-time communication and collaboration. The technology is getting to a level of sophistication that it could be used as a replacement for some conventions, such as what Cisco did for a global sales meeting last year.
VuRoom is compatible with both Mac and PC versions of Skype and can be downloaded immediately for $9.95.
