Meetings.io - Notepad for video meetings
June 12, 2012 | Author: Adam Levine
There is an opinion that one of the most successful and useful computer applications is Notepad. It is perfectly simple, perfectly fast and can solve a lot of tasks - from the development of web pages to business plan creation. If apply the philosophy of Notepad to videoconferencing, you'll come to something like Meetings.io. Though there are a lot of good solutions for videoconferencing now, and some of them are even free (like Webex, Google Hangouts, ooVoo). But before using these tools you need to install software on your computer or at least create an account. In Meetings.io you don't need to do it. You just open the site, click Start, send the link to collaborators and voila! Of course, inside the virtual room it doesn't have all these bells and whistles like in Webex or Google Hangouts, but it has a notepad (!), in which you can put the notes during the video conversation.
For free you can organize meetings with up to 5 participants. In the future, the creators are planning to add a paid version for a larger number of participants and with additional features.
Meetings.io also features the modern-style interface - video streams are displayed in the format of smartphone screen, making it ideal video meeting involving mobile users.
