What is Live Meeting?
Microsoft Office Live Meeting is a conferencing service that allows you to hold a virtual meeting with small or large groups of participants. Live Meeting allows participants to exchange information via live video and audio interaction, chat, shared files or desktops, and pre-recorded presentations. Presenters can receive real-time feedback from meeting attendees to allow them to adjust their pace and content. You can also launch an ad hoc Live Meeting session from within Office Communicator. For more, see Microsoft's Live Meeting page.
At Indiana University, Office Communicator and Live Meeting clients are available to students, faculty, and staff as part of the UniCom service.
Before downloading UniCom software, you must email Telephone Consulting; you will need to read and acknowledge an important message about emergency communications. If you are already signed up for the UniCom service and have accepted the Emergency 911 Acknowledgment Statement, you can download the Office Communicator clients, which will install both Office Communicator and Live Meeting, from IUware.
