The Host can record a Yugma webcast and save the recording to their recorded session file space. The Host can also send this recorded session to any person they wish by using the Send Recorded Session function. This feature is located in the My Yugma Session Management section. Let us know if you have any questions regarding this function at info@yugma.com. Hope this helps! Hi Samuel,

Easy to use and available as a portable version, too. I use DimDim quite a while for my customers. First, they are all very surprised getting this kind of service for free and after the presentation they are all satisfied with the technology used. Cheers, Stefan Hi,

Still not found a way of properly getting the dictionaries to work. Suggestions welcome. Re: AbiWord
