Better shared-session/whiteboard/collaboration software than MS OneNote Shared-session?
"cfman" <comtech.usa[ at ]gmail.com> 17.07.2006 04:42:15
Hi all,

MS OneNote has a very good shared-session/collaboration/whiteboard feature
and it allows me and my friend to do discussions online.

Are there any better such softwares in terms of speed(less delay), and
functionalities?

We are looking for whiteboard software that can do the following:

1. Save the whole sessions(multi-pages) for later review;
2. Compress bitmap before transmitting -- if you copy&paste a large bitmap
into an old whiteboard product(MS Netmeeting), it can be extremely slow and
even make the connection dead.
3. Stable connection, won't drop calls, and get disconnected all the time.
4. More features and functionalities. Smooth transmitting and less delay.

Please give us some pointers! Thanks a lot!

Don't mention Netmeeting whiteboard. As I said, Netmeeting was discontinued
from Microsoft and I have listed the problems/issues with Netmeeting's
whiteboard, see above.

Which version of OneNote are you talking about?
Did you check out the new 2007 version?

OneNote preview:

As OneNote is a part of Office, for the downoad start here:

http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/beta/getthebeta.mspx?showIntro=n



As in the TabletPC newsgroup you complained a bout not enough spcon on
the screen:
ON 2007 has a "full screen mode which shuts off everything except the
MenuBar (well, I should say "it should [there still is a bug in so far
and at present on ToolBar remains).
