Answer 1

1.TRUE
Web conferencing is a way to conduct collaborative live meetings or presentations over the Internet. Web conferencing is possible using either a downloaded application on each of the attendees’ computers or a Web-based application that requires attendees to enter an online address to join the conference.
2.TRUE
Wikis allow users to determine the relevancy of content rather than depending on a central document control group. A wiki software typically comes with built-in version control so that every change to a wiki document includes a record of who made the change. If necessary, it is relatively easy to revert to an earlier version of the wiki.
3.TRUE
Adoption of a unified communications (UC) solution eliminates the need for multiple communications systems and vendors, which leads to simpler communication processes. Some UC vendors install their equipment and software on an organization’s premises and some operate in the cloud.
4.FALSE
Instant messaging (IM) is a one-to-one conversation in which one computer communicates with another for the purpose of exchanging text, images, and more. IM is less formal than email and is used primarily in a synchronous communications mode, with both parties sending and receiving messages in real time.
5.TRUE
Organizations are using corporate blogs externally for branding, marketing, or public relations purposes. Executives or public relations people write corporate blogs with the goal of improving a firm’s public image and promoting its products and services. Corporate blogging can be a good way for a corporation to make itself appear more personable and appealing.
