Ask YC: Free / Open Source Solution for online meetings

9 pointsby igorhvrabout 15 years ago
While I worked at BigCo, we used a really nice tool (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Acrobat_Connect) to have our online meetings - sharing the screen, with a small chat window, etc. I am trying to find something similar to this, but open source (preferably GPL'ed or under some more liberal license). The best I was able to find up to now was http://webhuddle.sourceforge.net - anyone has any recommendations?

Open Meetings, hosted at Google Code: <a href="http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/</a><p>It's ugly but it works, and it's free.

To be clear, did you specifically need the code so you could self-host/tweak or did you need a free service variant?<p>If you need services, one such free meeting service is dimdim.com.<p>For open source stuff I had heard of the old JWebPresenter (e.g. <a href="http://zhao.sourceforge.net/#introduction" rel="nofollow">http://zhao.sourceforge.net/#introduction</a> ), but I'm not sure what else is out there nowadays.

Ditto @thorax - check out Dimdim: <a href="http://www.dimdim.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.dimdim.com</a><p>It's an Open Source virtual conferencing app comparable to Acrobat Connect (which we used to use as well). We make a JumpBox for it available here: <a href="http://jumpbox.com/app/dimdim" rel="nofollow">http://jumpbox.com/app/dimdim</a>
