TinyChat.com is pretty slick.
With literally 2 (or 3) clicks you can be video conferencing with others, sharing files, and even screensharing.
I did a very quick adhoc test and 12 courageous web-cam-enabled Tweets came to help me stress test the application.
Some things of note:
- There is a cap on the amount of video streams set at 12.
- Up to 100 users can be viewing though.
- File sharing and screen sharing is super simple and easy to do.
- You can boot, mute, change volume settings of all of the users (very nice feature here for moderation).
- Video quality is pretty good, all things considered.
- Text chatting is enabled with URLs auto-generated.
- You can use Twitter to get the word out with a few clicks. Very nice feature.
The Pro Version has some additional features:
- You can save the entire session (very cool) and record.
- It’ll cost you $20 per month.
- Passwords for privacy enabled at the Pro Level.
- Higher video quality enabled.
- Reserve up to 5 names for rooms.
All in all it could be a very handy (and quick) video conferencing solution for ministry or just creative meetings. The file sharing and screen-sharing is something that really sets it apart.
Thanks to those that helped me test! And look, they all did the “Human3rror” look (after the jump)!
