Look at Dimdim


Look at Dimdim: http://www.dimdim.com/

Dimdim provides web meeting software. Here is a chance to make the world a smaller place - by creating a simple, free service that lets everyone everywhere communicate using rich media in real time. And not only would Dimdim be easy to use, it would also be free so web meetings could be democratized and made available to everyone. Enabling people around the world to show pictures, PPTs, PDFs, screens, even video as part of their conversations with no desktop client (like Skype or Outlook) is technically very complicated and often at the mercy of the internet connection speed or the power of the CPU. Today anyone can signup and hold their own web meetings using Dimdim Free. So simple anyone can use it. Unlike other web conference products, Dimdim does not require users to install software on their computers to attend web meetings. Users can start or join meetings with just a few clicks. Dimdim is available for free so everyone - not just big companies with big budgets - can use it. And Dimdim is available as open source software so you can extend and improve it freely. Dimdim already integrates with other software and can be extended easily. And Dimdim is extremely flexible, available in hosted and onsite configurations and easily customizable.

How would you use Dimdim in your classroom, outside your classroom, during and after school hours or for other educational purposes?
