Datmedia's ground-breaking new streaming media software application datpresenter™ DPX V2.0 (www.datpresenter.com) powers the presentation and enables viewers to access it at any time and from anywhere in the world. A standard PC with an internet connection or a configured mobile phone is all viewers need to gain a fascinating insight into how these new technologies have revolutionized knowledge sharing at the BBC and their potential for use in other organisations.

It also demonstrates how Datmedia's datpresenter™ DPX V2.0 streaming media software harnesses the hottest trends in learning - the use of social and collaborative technologies, rapid content development and mobile delivery. The software delivers interactive learning content (in the form of audio, video, flash and interactive web journeys) on demand.

Stephen Clee, Managing Director of Datmedia, said: "It is exciting how internet technologies are being shown to have useful real world applications. Nigel Paine has his finger on the pulse of the latest developments and this presentation illustrates how everyone can become involved."

Ron Edwards, Managing Director of Ambient Performance, said: "We're hearing the buzz around 'podcasting, wikis and blogs' for learning but what about real applications? Nigel Paine explains how these technologies have produced results and we are sharing his insights with everybody."
