Merriam-Webster conducted their annual update of their dictionary. Now on their 11th addition, Webster has added the word webinar to their pages.

According to John Morse,Merriam-Webster’s president and publisher, webinar is “one more example of the
significant ongoing trend for electronic technologies to add words to the language.”

We have always preferred the term web seminar at ReadyTalk but it looks like webinar is here to stay. Regardless, it is certainly a testament to the impact web conferencing (and webinars) has had upon our business culture over the last several years.
