It’s not a Breeze
I’m planning on using Adobe’s Breeze (formerly Macromedia’s Breeze) to produce the webcasts and it isn’t turning out to be such a breeze.
We use Adobe’s ColdFusion for our website development and rather efficiently I got an e-mail back from our account manager asking if I needed any more info about Breeze when I set up a 30 day trial account. That was about as efficient as she got, though.
Breeze uses Flash (which is apparantly installed on 98% of desktops) to display video and graphics delivered from a server after having been uploaded in (near) real time from a desktop. It’s a neat concept and it seems to work pretty well for small groups.
Now all I need is a call back from our account manager to be able to try it out for real with more than the five attendees that the trial allows.
