GoToMeeting: Web conferencing


GoToMeeting is an online tool that businesses can use to host meetings over the Internet instead of meeting in person. Anyone can view an application on one PC using a patented technology.


GoToMeeting is a great way for businesses to save money on unneeded travel cost, which in turn saves time when one doesn't have to leave the office or home for that matter in order to conduct a meeting.

  4. Web confrencing is here now! i remeber when we would only see this technology advertised on tv programs and movies before it had been perfected yet. Usually on spy (JAMES BOND TYPE) movies a man would have a small device where he could interact through a two way computer screen that could see and hear him and his boss back at the headquarters. I grew up watching this fantasy technology in cartoons and movies. Great to know that video conferencing is a thing of the present and video conferences through cell phones might be a thing of the near future

  5. I think this idea is great, mostly because I hate meetings. I get so bored and usually can’t pay attention unless I am multitasking. In a face-to-face meeting, not giving your full attention to whoever is droning on is usually considered in appropriate. But sometimes I feel that face to face meetings are more effective especially in our group for this class.

  6. I work at a financial institution and web conferences are a must if you want to do meeting between branches. We use the Skype program with the video option. Very cool.

  7. This is interesting. Our instructors actually suggested teleconferencing/videoconferencing to me for our group. Thought it was a god idea. I just had no idea what to do with it.
