Video Conferencing with Live Meeting

Dimdim’s a lightweight, flash-based collaborative solution that’s available for anyone with a web browser. It’s relatively low-cost and is aimed at small businesses, charities and freelancers. The main advantages are as follows:

• Works on any computer (Mac, Windows, Linux etc)
• Entirely browser based
• Speech and video facilities
• Option for recording and storing conferences/meetings
• Free to try, and basic version is also free
• Colourful, fun and easy to use

Wizard-style intro means you can easily start collaborating by sharing your screen, opening a whiteboard or giving a presentation

Start your meeting by setting up the name, and choose scheduling options.

Lots of options here, especially considering this is web-based.

Web meeting in a web browser; video box can be moved around and here we’re using a whiteboard. You’ll also notice there’s a US phone number you can call if you want to use phone instead of built-in microphone.

Here we’re sharing a PDF document and annotating with the annotation features. Again, this is all inside the web browser so no client was required for the person I invited to the conference.

There’s also the option to record your meeting.
