Web Conferencing
What is Web Conferencing?
Web conferencing is used to conduct live meetings or
presentations over the internet. These meetings can consist of a
few participants or a very large number of attendees. Web
conferencing is great for situations where not everyone that is
essential to a meeting can be in same place at the same time. With
web conferencing, they need only have access to a computer with an
internet connection.

Adobe provides Adobe ConnectNow as a way for small groups to
easily create a meeting space online that they can work in from
