SmartForce,the e-learning company, has set up a series of live, interactive webcasts called SmartSeminars. The on-line presentations cover a number of general management and specialised IT technical topics.

The webcasts use streaming to allow you to both see and hear the presenter - the demonstration looks pretty impressive. Apparently the webcasts are free for a limited time, but it's not clear what the charge will be after this period has elapsed.
