Free online meeting (alternative to Placeware and Webex)-

  1. Yugma: I started researching free alternatives to Placeware and Webex and found one -> http://www.yugma.com/. It lets you do an online virtual conference with upto 20 people. For more than 20 people, you have to signup for their premium service ( Pricing varies from $14.99/month to $179.99/month depending on the number of attendees [20-500]). You need to download a Java applet to do your desktop sharing and let your meeting participants see your screen. Your meeting participants need to download the Java applet as well. This is done automatically when they go to join the meeting at the Yugma website.
  2. Several other free online meetings I found and haven't had time to review yet:
