We profiled some Bloggers writing about WiZiQ sometimes back. We profile some more in this post:
James T. Cook, an instructional designer writes:
Then, there is WiZiQ, the answer to those wanting similar services from Centra or Elluminate; however, they want it for free. WiZiQ is probably one of the most powerful systems on the Web for free…next to Google Docs. I say this because it brings you one step closer to bridging the social presence gap in online learning.

Janet Bianchini, an ELT Teacher and Blogger, writes:
Well, I have just logged off from my first live online conference via WizIQ.
It was the most amazing experience. So much happening in real time-
wonderful video presentations, text messaging, live chatting, using an
IWB for the first time, connecting with so many people at once, viewing
wikis, viewing photos, it was the most incredible experience I have had
in a while!

This week I looked as WiZiQ, a free Web Conferencing tool that was recommended to me by one of my readers. It does the same thing Adobe Connect (formerly known as Breeze) does, but it is free and does not require software installation (it does require Flash). I was pretty impressed with how easy it was for me to join a session and interact with the session leader (instructor or teacher).

Edward Cleary, a public class presenter at WiZiQ and a management trainer
I have discovered an application that is web based, requires no download, allows for full sharing of audio, video, slides, and desktop. It even records the sessions for you if you want people to play them back later. It's called WiZIQ.com. It's in a beta stage but from what I have experience, it's reliable.

Love this tool! Great for real-time collaboration and gives so many choices for communication (text, voice, video, annotation) that it is very versatile.

Kirsten Winkler, a German Language Instructor writes:
The session itself was really smooth. There were between 8 to 13 students with me in the classroom, the text chat was stable and my voice could be heard clearly by the participants. Just two or three minor breakdowns of the voice chat during the session.

Web Worker Daily, writes:
The web service bills itself as an “Online Educational Platform for Teachers and Learners” and is available free of charge. What it provides is a virtual classroom, the purpose of which is left completely up to users. Definitely an attractive proposition, and one which I can think of many uses for in terms of web working applications.

Hi guys,
thanks for mentioning my blog post :). I think the change to classes from sessions is a step in the right direction. Looking forward to future news of you.
Greetings from France,
Kirsten
