Hey all,

Some of you may know through fb or twitter that my godson, Seamus, underwent brain surgery this past summer to remove a malignant tumor from his cerebellum.

Web as Desktop: Live presentations on the web!

"As a president, I always join many meetings and trade shows to present our products or corporation. There is no problem with the live presentation.
