yView: A Free Web Based Collaboration

by admin on July 26, 2006

Vyew is a browser-based conferencing and always-on collaboration platform that provides instant visual communication without the need for client downloads or installations. Vyew‘s multimedia workspace enables shared viewing of presentations, files, photos and even snapshots of your desktop.

Included are tools for whiteboarding, annotating, text chatting, and phone conferencing. With Vyew’s “always-on” configuration, users can leave – permit others to enter and make revisions – and return, knowing that all content and annotations will remain intact.

Vyew ’s 2.0 release in June will differentiate it further by permitting concurrent group projects or allowing users to create dynamic “scrapbooks” with their social network. This multi-user created content can, then, be published through a Vyew window – even on other websites or blogs. These ‘Vyewlets’ are fully interactive; enabling users to annotate and draw in them, while the original content gets updated in real-time.

Vyew is a powerful and extensible sharing platform with a growing set of plug-ins, such as Yahoo maps, Google search, diagram tools, notepad, games, photo slideshow, and more.
