Edublogs.org uses LearnCentral for the Edublogs Webinars I believe.
Hope this helped :)

@Jimmer @Kenneth Almost correct :) Our webinars are listed on LearnCentral which is Elluminate's Social network.
Edublogs has a community partnership with Elluminate and we use Elluminate for our webinars (http://www.elluminate.com/community/community_partner_program.jsp). This software isn't integrated with WordPress however when you run sessions you can embed the recording links into post.
The reason why we use Elluminate (http://elluminate.com/) is because it is one of the best online virtual conference tools especially if you want application sharing and white board tools.
Elluminate is a fantastic webinar platform. Probably the best I have seen. (The worst was DimDim.)
But, Elluminate has one problem. While their base price looks low, and they have a free room with a moderate number of seats, without paying a very hefty license fee, you cannot have unique logins for sessions.
Meaning, if you want to charge for a webinar, you cannot provide your customers with a private access code. Anyone who has ever been to one of your webinars will know the login for your paid webinar. Unless, of course, you pay the $3,000 per year fee to get that feature.

Great information. Thank you again.

Some quick google'ing makes me wonder if DimDim is the only open source one out there.

Hi DrMike,
I have seen another, but it was hidden deep within the bowels of a Google search with 100 responses per page ... maybe somewhere between #483 and #876 in the search. I'll "try" to keep my eyes open.
Meantime, if folkses don't mind the login URL always being the same, Elluminate's free version is fantastic. It's just not good for delivering paid content.

As some one whose had too many years experience with webinars. If you are wanting people to pay for the content than it is worth spending the money to use the conference tool that best suits your needs.
