See Obama Live in Connect Pro

May 29, 2009 /Events /

We’ve gotten a lot of good feedback on our earlier post about Sec. of State Hillary Clinton and US President Barack Obama using Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro for public-facing web events. Several recordings of these sessions are available on the US Department of State’s YouTube and Facebook accounts (never knew your US Federal bureaucracies were so with it, eh?) that you can check out.

President Obama even has a live event scheduled on Connect Pro for next week on June 4th, live from Egypt in which he will deliver a speech on the future of Muslim/U.S. relations:

The US Department of State uses one of our partners, ConnectSolutions, to manage their implementation (aka managed services), and seem to be using the product with great effect.
