Forum
Forum is a distributed application that enables speakers to broadcast
talks over a network to the audience members' workstation desktops.
The audience receives live audio and video from the speaker, as well
as the speaker's slides and slide annotations. The audience can
interact with the speaker by speaking into a microphone, "voting"
anonymously, or sending in written comments.
