Hi there.
I'm sure you all have been looking also at DimDim.
It does have some edge to it, and looks great. however, I liked more how the client is loaded in webhuddle. dimdim on firefox would request a plugininstall. Not sure how IE would react. perhaps IE is not presented with an install plugin question.
anyway, I think webhuddle has the potential to dust dimdim...
As I said in another thread, it would be great for the presenter to have some sort of info on what is beeing presented to the users. perhaps a little preview window, big enough to get an idea of what is beeing transmitted.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
other suggestions:
* webhuddle needs eye-catching gui
* unique features like remote control system (for helpware situation)
* more administration tools in the admin panel:
I would add the size of the files in the list of previous recordings.
* Jaz up the admin panel gui with ajax
* look at how dimdim does it's desktop sharing. it does it in a more user friendly way.
* look at dimdims gui. theres a lot of ideas there that could be easily adopted to webhuddle. like webcamera, avantar pictures on all the participents..
* Dimdim is also a opensourceproject, and one could borrow ideas from there
* and as previous future request, a hands up poll function. that could almost work as the question poll. but when the moderator end the handsup. he/she will get a list of users that had their hands up. and when you right clik on someone in this list, you could have a menu with perhaps, "give mic", "give moderator right" or other features.
* start using right click in gui. this could perhaps simplify how you make the gui work.
that's all for now

maby the developer of this project could use some of the ideas used in dimdim
Hi there again. I have now posted a lengthy suggestion post in the tracker:
remote control:
