Hi all,

A few of us at our team have been looking at NetMeeting as a means of communication and colaboration.

Has anybody used it?

We can get the chat, white board, file sharing and application sharing bit working but we have struck out on the video and sound bits.

Has anyone had any success?

Microsoft is sort of making folks get a hotmail account to use it without logging on to a netmeeting server (where I have heard that a lot of folks bother you asking to join your meeting for... ...let's just say 'unsavory' activities ;-)

Anyway, I have a hotmail account and I will try to login to MSN's Messager Service when I am online. You should be able to find me by name 'Joseph Johnson' or by hotmail e-mail address 'drjoe047@hotmail.com' by the way, don't send me mail there, I don't check it.

Anyone who wants to install NetMeeting 3.01 & try to have a video conference or a voice conversation, I am all ears (and eyes).
