December 2, 2010 9:30am to 10:30am US Pacific Time – Web Conference Overview

The Instant Messaging market has continued to evolve beyond expectations in the last year, as new technologies and integration bring many Instant Messaging services closer together with Social Networking and VoIP services. While the initial scope of IM was to provide an informal channel of real-time communication between two or more people, now that scope IM has increased to encompass video, voice, social networking, email and more. With the rapid changes that are underway in the IM market, some questions remain: Where is the use of IM headed in the future? How is IM being used in the enterprise today? What will become of IM in the face of social networking services?
