I happened across some Open Source software called Big Blue Button. It looks like it might be an alternative to WebEx, but you have to setup and host the server piece yourself.
I liked the page talking about the open source software that they build upon. There were several projects I was familiar with and several that I hadn’t heard of. I am always looking for new tools for the toolbox!
Why would I be looking for an alternative for WebEx? Well, because of answers like this: no support for productivity tools. Also because of no support for Ubuntu 64bit. I can’t blame WebEx though — they only develop for where the market is. And, to their credit, they have increased support for Linux. I have it working now, and that is what counts.
