WebRTC has been around for a while. But like everything in software development, there is always more to learn. Since the original launch of WebRTC in 2011 by Google, a lot has changed. As an industry, we have learned a lot about how to build and scale WebRTC in many use cases for which WebRTC was not originally designed. There have been many new commercial platforms built to help developers use WebRTC. We’ve also seen

As a tech professional and a business owner responsible for sales and marketing of my software development business, I spend a good portion of my time traveling to different conferences. Sometimes as a speaker, vendor, or just an attendee, I go to these conferences with three goals in mind:  I want to learn, I want to network, and I want to meet new customers

Part of our blog series on Virtual Events in the Pandemic. “Hollywood is more of an idea than a place.” - Kevin Bacon If Kevin Bacon1 is correct, that’s a good thing. Because right now there are a lot fewer people in those Hollywood studios due to the pandemic. But that doesn’t mean the creative ideas of Hollywood have to be put on hold. A number of TV shows have tried filming remote episodes, sometimes

Part of our blog series on Virtual Events in the Pandemic. One of the many things that has changed in 2020 and due to the coronavirus pandemic is job interviews. As if a pandemic alone is not enough, we are dealing with a global recession as well. Many businesses have had to close or curtail their services due to fewer customers visiting them in person. Other businesses, especially corporate office workers, have switched to a

Part of our blog series on Virtual Events in the Pandemic. I already wrote one blog post in this series on virtual concerts, but I couldn’t resist writing another.  What can I say?  I really miss live music.  I’ll touch on a few aspects about live streaming music in this post. My first take is inspired by a recent radio “in home session” that I listened to. I’m a big fan of local radio stations,

Part of our blog series on Virtual Events in the Pandemic. Music plays an important role in my life. I’m not talented enough to play music, but I have found that live music simply makes me a better person. It gives me a fresh perspective, reduces my stress, and allows me to step away from work and decompress. Live music makes me happy. One of the cruel challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic is how broadly

As the coronavirus pandemic took hold and countries locked down, the first industry that looked at WebRTC video applications with fresh eyes was healthcare. This made sense; even during a pandemic, people get sick and medical care must go on in some form. As the shock of COVID-19 and its associated lockdowns became “the new normal,” we saw a change in the type of industry looking to us for live video applications:  online events. The

Now that we're all working from home, it's time for your business to innovate. Your customers and partners have grown accustomed to using video applications to meet remotely over the past few months. Because remote work is our new normal—and because we likely aren't heading back to the office anytime soon—you should integrate a custom WebRTC video application into your business processes. Why video? Video provides a level of connectedness and interaction unlike any other

2020 looks a lot different than any of us imagined. We're staying home, working from home, cancelling our trips, and rethinking our plans and processes. In the workplace, the global health and economic crisis has caused uncertainty for company leaders. How will my business adapt and survive? How can I keep my team and customers safe? Chances are that you pivoted to remote work. Common video conferencing and messaging tools allow your team to collaborate

The US is now three months into the pandemic shutdown, and many of us have fully adjusted to remote work. In fact, several companies have announced plans to continue working from home through 2020 or even indefinitely. This represents a major shift in the way that employers have viewed the option to work from home. Today's technology is what allows many of us to continue our normal business operations from the comfort and safety of
