FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(Business Wire)--
NetStairs.com, Inc., the intelligent media delivery enabler, announced today
that HEXA2`s Virtual Town Hall is now capable of providing premier HD video
broadcast via Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: AKAM), the leader in powering
rich media, dynamic transactions and enterprise applications online. 

As the name implies, Virtual Town Hall (VTH) is truly a unique, all-in-one
meeting hall that must be experienced. Founded on closed or cloud computing, VTH
is able to provide an easy access to broadcast HD quality video. During
commencement of any broadcast, the moderator inserts the Akamai Resource Locator
(ARL) in the application, and the flash player embedded within the application
streams out video. The VTH Moderator merely copies and pastes Akamai`s ARL into
the VTH video player. The audience enjoys watching high definition video quality
broadcasts for their online presentation panel. 

Originated on NetStairs/SNL (Social Networking Live), HEXA2 VTH provides simple
and secure access for moderators and audience alike. When delivered across
Akamai`s global distribution platform, the HD broadcast makes HEXA2`s Virtual
Town Hall an ideal destination site for small and large events & online
gatherings. Introduction of HEXA2`s Virtual Town Hall combined with Akamai`s
platform now encourages new interactive client-centric applications and use. 

HEXA2`s Virtual Town Hall includes an all-in-one telepresence, VoIP,
presentation panel, HD video broadcast and four (4) live cameras through an
interactive all in one screen. VTH comes with a "Content Asset Manager", user
registration, and built-in conversion engine. Popular files such as .PDF, .DOC,
.XLS, .PPT, FLV and MP4 are currently supported in the current release. A
moderator simply uploads its collateral assets. HD content can then be streamed
across Akamai`s platform. 

VTH attendance does not require any complex audience downloads, desktop
installation or calling to a VoIP center, while listening to and participating
in a presentation in a conversational format. Moreover, the audience is able to
communicate via a "permission to speak" button with the moderator. A FIFO based
queuing system that enables moderator managing replies to multiple audience
queries. The Audience without webcam may ask questions via text. VTH provides an
interactive capability to watch and meet the audience while broadcasting. 

HEXA2`s VTH is ideal for IR, PR firms, & Event Planners. It is designed to
broaden the real-time interactive audience experience and brings a new paradigm
into doorsteps of production houses, TV Studios, premier shows promoters, and
event planners. HEXA2 offers many monetized venues such as premier show
extension during live event presence. It is a great setting for DRTV market, ad
agencies focus group research while it could complement many popular social
networking sites with value added features such as many-to-many telepresence
experience. 

IT managers find HEXA2`s IaaS irresistible. It imposes less end-user tech
support and update maintenance. It supports large group users without meeting
hall collapse due to its architectural design. It is firewall friendly and
requires no download. It is founded on Content Framework Management (CFM)
supporting open ID standards.
