Online content delivery platform

Hello,
Does anyone have any recommendations for software that can integrate video, powerpoint etc for the delivery of online course content?
I have seen these online courses that have video on the top left corner of the instructir delivering the lecture, powerpoint slides on the top right and a whiteboard/chat functionality on the bottom.
Thanks!
John

We use Elluminate. It works well with slow modems, too. You can check out a demo and participate in a real session at

You may also want to look at Adobe Captivate and TechSmith Camtasia.

Look into Wimba
http://www.wimba.com/
It is cross-platform and can do what you describe. Adobe Connect is good for incorporating PowerPoint with streaming audio.
