Wengo Meeting - Take your next meeting online

WindowsMacLinuxby Emily Price Feb 18th 2007

wengo logoWengo Meeting, currently in private beta, allows you to invite up to four friends or business associates to video chat together for free. The service is completely web based with no software downloads required. Not surprisingly, Wengo Meeting was built by the same people who created the WengoPhone and WengoVisio.

As a Wengo Meeting user you select your meeting time and send email invitations to up to four participants along with an optional personal message. Meetings can be set up anywhere from a minute to over a year in advance. For meeting you plan extremely in advance you can also set up an email reminder to notify you of the conference anywhere between 1 and 24 hours in advance of the chat. The day of the chat everyone will be sent a URL that takes them immediately into the conference with no registration required for your chat participants.

Wengo Meeting is currently in private beta. I applied this morning and was given access within seconds.

Free multimedia on your site with Stickam

More than that, they provide 500 MB of storage for these things, a playback utility (it's in the player you put on your site), no bandwidth restrictions, and cool webcam videoconference functionality for anyone with said device. Best of all, it runs on Linux, Windows, and a Mac (even works in Safari!), and it is free. I'm not really sure what the catch is, except that their official launch isn't until tomorrow, so get in while the line is short. One more bonus: you can upload pics and videos from your cellphone, ala Flickr. Check it out and see if it's better than sliced bread, because I'm still trying to figure out what's wrong with it...

Graveyard Shift - zombie-busting Time Waster

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
