Tuning In Free Videoconferencing - Can You Beam with MeBeam? (
Page 5 of 6 )
MeBeam
Those looking to create videoconferences with MeBeam should be come with low expectations.
MeBeam is browser-based and is pretty much a one-trick pony. Videoconferences
are initiated by the host visiting www.mebeam.com
and creating a unique conference room. The meeting leader informs others of the
name of the room, and those guests access that meeting room via the MeBeam Web site.
Resource Library:
Video is low quality with low-frame rates; audio is poor quality, and a
headset is a must for any voice communications.
MeBeam uses a Flash-based application to access video and audio from
participating computers. Controls are very limited, and additional functions
are nonexistent. A word of caution with MeBeam: The site offers a “random room”
feature from the home page. Click on that, and you may wind up in a videoconference
that you really don’t want to be in.
