ArticlesMore Scalable Videoconferencing


February 1998 / What's New / More Scalable Videoconferencing

While videoconferencing breaks barriers between people, BoxTop Interactive's iVisit aims to break barriers in videoconferencing technology. The product is scalable because it doesn't need a reflector like other videoconferencing tools. BoxTop simply maintains a directory server that keeps a list of names and IP addresses of iVisit users. You contact someone by querying this server. A black-and-white version is available for free downloading at http://www.boxtop.com, a color consumer version costs $49, and there is also a corporate version with a proxy server for operating within a firewall.
