Dear Friends, On the coming Saturday, 12th July at 4:30pm, we bring to you an exciting talk on 'Managing Real time Streaming Media in a web 2.0 world'.
Hotmail changed public perception about e-mail - it was no longer necessary to pay internet service providers for an e-mail address. Then Skype changed the voice over IP landscape. Dimdim has attempted at filling a similar gap in the web conferencing world. Mr. Prakash Khot, CTO, will deliver a technical talk that focuses on the challenges faced in developing software which handles Real time Audio/Video Real time Desktop Sharing Additionally, the challenges in testing the real-time sharing software, Asymmetrical Networks Caching Proxies will be discussed. About DimDim DimDim, an Open Source company in Hyderabad, created the world's free web meeting where you can share your desktop, show slides, collaborate, chat, talk and broadcast via webcam with absolutely no download required for attendees.
