Being the Presenter

Web Conferencing integrates text chat and collaboration features, and also lets you conveniently share an audio conference room number.

This section outlines the range of features available in Web Conferencing. The toolbar explained below is available to the moderator (the initiator of the conference). Thus, the moderator is the default presenter. However, the moderator can make one of the viewers the presenter. This can be done by right-clicking the appropriate viewer in the participants' pane and selecting Make Presenter.

Then the viewer temporarily becomes the presenter and can share desktop etc., with access to the Web Conferencing toolbar. The initiator of the meeting can always right-click the presenter-viewer and select Make Viewer to take charge of the meeting again.

Using the Web Conferencing Interface

The Web Conferencing interface has three components:

• The main interface
• The Desktop Viewer
