The host opens the application, and other users view it on their screens simultaneously. The host may choose to give control to someone else in the conference. Changes made appear on everyone's monitors. Once the users are finished, they may save changes made in the session to the host's machine. A shared 2D whiteboard lets users collaborate with one another simultaneously.
Users can cut, paste, annotate and change images.
These images may be created spontaneously or pasted in from anything viewable on a user's monitor. Control of the session can be changed easily from one user to another so that confusion is minimized while the ability to collaborate is maintained. Different users are assigned colors for pointers and annotation devices so that they can identify themselves and others. Users can save whiteboard sessions so that they can be accessed at a later date. The whiteboard is compliant with the Microsoft NetMeeting standard and can be shared with any system that deploys that standard.
