Today, there are solutions to Wanamaker’s problem. Online, David Perdew has just released new software that can track the clicks... [...]

There is a delay in transmitting what you say, only a second or two, and if you are lecturing, it doesn’t matter. But, if you are doing an interactive webinar,... [...]
