Sclipo announces SclipoLive in Blogak / StartUp 2.0 at Guggenheim in Bilbao

Posted on May 24, 2007

We are proud to announce, SclipoLive which we will be officially launched in its BIO (By Invitation Only) version on Monday, May 28, 2007. With this, Sclipo is the world’s first, user-generated skills-network offering a web-cam for live teaching.

SclipoLive will make a significant impact on non-academic learning: With SclipoLive, a Master can instruct one or many students anytime and anywhere in the world. Masters can charge students for the class, if they want, at the price they want. All classes are recorded.

Now, Hans from Hamburg can learn Flamenco-guitar from Pepe in Sevilla and Weihong can practice English with Jennifer from Seattle. SclipoLive also allows Students and Masters to chat during the class, to take notes and to exchange supporting documents. These are time-stamped and deep-tagged into the recorded class. Students can now review their classes much more efficiently then before: they just go to their notes and comments they made during any live class. Reviewing classes will easier and more productive than ever before.

For now, SclipoLive will only be accessible for selected users by invitation. If you want to be a beta-user, create an account on Sclipo and send us an email with your username to SclipoLiveBeta@Sclipo.com. If you want to be notified when SclipoLive goes live, please send an email to SclipoLiveNotification@Sclipo.com.

Thanks!
