Webcast your WUD event!

If you’re thinking about creating a WUD event, consider webcasting it. A webcast gives your event global reach, exciting buzz, and it’s easier than you think.

What is a webcast?

A webcast is a way of broadcasting an event on the Internet. Users will see and hear your event’s content on their computers, and will be able to participate by text. The visible content of the webcast will be automatically archived so you can see and share it later. Actually, the session and the "room" it's held in will be yours forever, so you can continue to invite people to share your content and dialog.

Should I webcast my local event, or have a web-only event?

When you register your event, you can decide to webcast it. So you could have:

a local event with no webcast
a web-only event
a local event that’s also webcast

A web-only event is easy to do, gives you global reach, and reduces the logistical challenges of finding and organizing a location. Webcasting a local event gives you global reach, but still allows for the warmth and high-touch of a face-to-face meeting.

That does sound simple! I’m suspicious….

It’s really that simple. We will send you more details after you register. We will help you if you run into problems in advance or during your event.
