Unyte Meeting goes to public beta

by alec on April 4, 2007

Yesterday WebDialogs announced the spring beta of Unyte Meeting '07.  They're looking for testers now.

WebDialogs is seeking users to participate in the beta test, which will run through April 25, 2007. As a registered user, participants can sample Unyte Meeting’s unified voice, video and Web conferencing capabilities without charge for up to 1,500 minutes or until April 25—whichever comes first. To sign up, visit http://www.webdialogs.com/umbeta/.
