Kick the tyres on MS Lync
Relationships Australia SA is currently trialling Microsoft Lync as an internal and external communications tool and I’d like to invite all my blog readers to kick its digital tyres with us.
The trial is set for this Friday, 23 September 2011 from 3pm to 4pm Australian Central Time (Adelaide Time) / 3:30pm Australian Eastern Time.
To participate in the trial, you will need:
- to download and install the 50 MB MS Lync Attendee software that will allow you to hear audio and see video
- a headset with a microphone
- a Google Account to access the private Google site
- willingness to fill in registration form and feedback form
MS Lync Attendee software should work on Windows XP and newer, Mac OS’ 10.4.8 (possibly, not mentioned on the site though) and newer and Windows 7 mobile devices. It currently does NOT work on iPads, iPhones, Androids, Symbian mobiles, etc. System requirements here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg425720.aspx
