How to use DimDim

DimDim is a free web conference tool. It is worth having a look at this tool if you are a business or non-profit organisation who cannot afford to pay for a propitiatory platform such as Elluminate.

• Starting a scheduled meeting
• What to do when you are in a meeting
  

What I like about DimDim is that you do not need to download any software or have an account to join a meeting - you do need an account if you wish to host a meeting. Having said that, it does come with it's own set of challenges - here is my review of DimDim back in 2009.

I strongly recommend that you have a 'play' before the course meeting in DimDim, especially if you have volunteered to be a facilitator of the meeting.
