One web conferencing app Alliance Virtual Offices recommends checking out is called LiveMinutes. With LiveMinutes you can meet, write notes, share docs, sketch, and set up reminders. And, get this, it works with Evernote.
LiveMinutes was built with the new world of work – virtual office work – in mind. The developers understand that employees don’t all work in the same building and clients aren’t always just down the street. In other words, meeting in person isn’t as easy as it used to be – but the need to meet face to face is still necessary.
