Today Grandad (and I, although I wasn't really much help) were offered a month's free trial on Cisco's Webex Teleconference Site Thing Probably. It sells Teleconferences, okay? We attended a demo conference by telephone. The only speed bump we hit was when Grandad accidently hung up immediately after dialing in.
Duncan: Uh, Grandad? Did you know that you just hung up?
Grandad: Hm?
Somehow, I think that Webex won't be healthy for Grandad. Imagine him hosting a teleconference and hanging up before it even starts. All the other precinct chairman would be waiting for their "host" to say something only to eventually realize that he isn't there anymore. It could get hairy.

Ooh yeah! Very hairy.
ReplyDeleteThat's a rather large speed bump--a teleconference where the host opens the meeting by hanging up. It would probably end up with some offended politicians. And that might blow the marketing for this Republican Organization System thingy.
ReplyDeleteHmm, Mom has had tech support hang up on her three times in one day before, but I don't think that was on accident...
