If you ever need to mobilise minds, pool ideas or engage an audience as you plan a presentation, Google moderator http://www.google.com/moderator/ might be what you need. Like most things Google, it is a free applet. It promotes the concept of learning together. We believe that this is a key component of most productive events. It all starts at the planning stage and the way organizers can engage the audience before, during and after the event. It helps organisers to stay away from talking to issues that do not interest the audiences.
Google moderator provides enormous opportunities for running collaborative events with impact. It allows you to set up a question, describe it, attach a video and invite people – openly on the internet or by invitation only (accessible by a directly provided link). Those who visit the page may share new ideas, contribute to existing thoughts or cast a vote. No one can vote more than once, clever eh?
Google moderator also helps in synthesising thoughts to create a pattern. The initiator of the discussion maintains control while providing space to audience (target group) to be heard. So, go on. Make your events truly collaborative. Engage your audience in deciding the talking points at your next event.
