During a recent Life of E’s Email Extravaganza, I was asked the following question:
I am still mulling over Audio Acrobat vs. GoToWebinar. Due to limited resources I prefer not to buy both. It seems to me that GoToWebinar does everything Audio Acrobat does, plus it allows you to record the desktop. Why Audio Acrobat over [...]

If you aren’t familiar with Michael Bungay Stanier, I recommend you access his site: http://www.findyourgreatwork.com/
I just ordered a 6-pack of his new book – and downloaded some of his latest interviews (all available on the site for free).
Take a peek. Lots of learning and inspiration.

Julie-Ann McFann, Life of E’s member, Mac user, and the Fairy Godmother for academic women sent me this resource:
