Tris Hussey talks about using Convoq ASAP to make a meeting work:
So picture this, me and my two colleagues are on the conference call with a potential client (three people in one person's office) and listening to him struggle with typing in the case sensitive meeting information. He's not doing well and the frustration in his voice is coming through loud and clear. Side note here: One thing that really helped save the day was that my two colleagues and I had an open MSN IM session going so we could chat without the client knowing, or "hearing" the panic in our typing.Now as any six year veteran of the Boy Scouts would, I had the backup plan ready. I had already converted the presentation into ASAP%u2019s Flash-based format and set up a meeting in ASAP. I had also used the "Prepare a meeting" function so the slides were all queued up and ready. Before we lost the client in a fit of frustration, I invited my two colleagues via IM and the client via e-mail into the ASAP meeting. In less than two minutes the meeting was back on track. I gave a quick wave on the camera, then went full screen on the presentation. Technologically, the rest of the meeting went off with out a hitch.
In an earlier post, there's some discussion about taking an initial look at Convoq ASAP and Macromedia Breeze.
