Attending and Participating in Sametime Meetings

Participants contribute to meetings in several ways. For example, one participant might present a file on the whiteboard and allow another person to edit the file with the whiteboard tools. Participants can also respond to polls, invite others to join the meeting, and contribute to the conversation through chat or computer audio.

Note There are fewer options available for participants in broadcast meetings and chats. See "Participating in a Broadcast Meeting" and "Chatting with People" for more information.

Attending a Meeting

The way you attend a meeting depends on the type of meeting and the available options for the meeting. You can:

• Attend a Scheduled Meeting: You can attend a scheduled meeting from the Sametime Meeting Center. Some scheduled meetings include options that change the way you attend the meeting. For example, you might attend a telephone conference call associated with the meeting, or you might attend the meeting using NetMeeting.



• Attend an Instant Meeting: You can attend an instant meeting when you start the meeting or when you respond to an invitation.
