I spend most of the day sitting behind a computer.  Even though gas prices are down, who knows when they will go back up…  I used to use GoToMeeting software – which was really nice.  It’s just that $50 a month gets a little expensive when you go through a couple months in a row that you don’t use it much.

A good friend of mine, John, pointed me to Dimdim.  Dimdim is entirely web based.  You manage your web conferences inside their admin panel with nothing to download.  You can host meetings, join meetings or schedule events.

For the true technophile, they have a compiled version of the web conference hosting software that lets you keep all the stuff on your own server.  That’s nice for someone like me how tries to keep as much data in-house as possible.

I’ll probably mess around with the Dimdim open source edition this weekend – but until then have fun with the free conferencing!
