Message from Fred Dixon, CEO | Blindside Networks, Inc.

****************

Hi everyone,

 

I'm very happy we have a new up-to-date knowledge base for BigBlueButton and Blindside Networks for you and your users.

 

It's located at

 

  https://bigbluebutton.com/docs



****************

 

Here is a screenshot.

 

  1. The new KB features improved search and an AI assistance based on the knowledge base.

 

For example, if you ask "how do I share my screen?".

 

 *******

  1. To help you keep abreast of updates, there is now a "Latest Updates" section so you can see what is new in our hosting of BigBlueButton. 

 

 

  1. We've also added more content on some of the value added capabilities we provide with our hosting, such as more extensive analytics

 

 

  1. The KB is also linked from the Help menu in every BigBlueButton session.



As always, feedback welcome!


Regards,... Fred


Fred Dixon
