I have been anxiously awaiting this great web app to come out of beta testing. It’s finally here and it’s totally free! DimDim offers free web meetings to anyone who wishes to share any information simultaneously over the web. They boast of webcam/audio, whiteboard, powerpoint/pdf presentation, live chat, and desktop sharing. The maximum amount of people that can attend your meeting is twenty, however if you are a tech head, you can download the community edition and host it yourself with unlimited attendees. Say goodbye to Webex (Charges up to $375/month for five users) or GoToMeeting ($49/month).
Here are some ministry scenarios where this software can be useful. You could host a remote staff meeting. A teacher could share a powerpoint presentation over the internet if no projector is present. An IT person could share desktops to help resolve tech issues. The list goes on and on. You should try it! It’s free for all.
