In fact, Click to Meet 4.0 by First Virtual Communications (www.fvc.com) works with the hardware schools already have in place. The software integrates with common desktop applications, a microphone and webcam, the Web browser, Windows Messenger and Outlook. Click to Meet’s multipoint control and transcoding engine can connect up to 90 participants in a single videoconference call. The system is capable of inviting users to join the conference by different methods, including instant messaging, e-mail, telephone or cell phone calls. In addition, Click to Meet has options for nine languages so that users from all over the world can easily participate.
