Online Video Conferencing

Online Video Conferencing



Online video conferencing can only work after you set up your computer with an Internet connection and a few other items. These include camera, microphone, speakers and teleconferencing software so you are able to talk to each other and send data files.

The ability of this technology to share data enables both sides to see the same thing and input revisions instantaneously. This is known as document sharing or collaboration that happens to be a standard feature in most online video conferencing packages today.

For those who want more than point to point document sharing, there is multi- point document sharing. This means having three or more participants work on the same thing all at once. The best part with point to point or multi-point is the fact that the users do not have to stop what they are doing during file transfers so they can carry on with the rest of their work.

Another feature with online video conferencing is real time chat. You may already be familiar with this if you have ever used IRC or yahoo messenger in the past as it allows you to send short text messages. If you are speaking to one party and have to respond to someone else, you can use this without cutting anyone off.
