November 1, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Advanced Internet Technologies (AIT.com) announced on Thursday it has released meeting bowl, a new collaboration application that enables users to host and attend online meetings, seminars, or classes.
Meeting bowl, which starts from $29.00 a month, enables users to deliver a live or recorded presentation with both audio and video. The application is being used to improve understanding in many situations, such as e-learning, e-tutoring and Web seminars.
Meeting bowl requires no installation and can be accessed from almost any computer with an Internet connection. The application includes a chat feature that enables attendees to send a question to the presenter without interrupting the meeting, a whiteboard for drawing and sharing ideas, the ability to share new data and edit content during the course of the presentation and automatic record for individuals who need to review or learn at their own pace.
"Our customers asked for a solution that they could use or resell that would allow any size organization to conduct computer based training, hold meetings and collaborate," says Avery Skelton, VP of product development and senior manager of AIT. "We're happy to say that we delivered all of that and more."
AIT announced last month it completed the beta phase of its website builder program Ready4Design and rolled out a fully functional version of the software for customers.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
