This is especially useful when making presentations, to highlight things or point out things of interest. The tool facilitates the online presentations and demos showing in real time your computer screen to anyone in the network. Ardesia is XInput-Aware, so if you have a mouse, a graphic tablet, a touch screen, a wiimote whiteboard or a commercial whiteboard; you can draw lines with different strength, select color, erase things and draw arrows. You can free-hand draw geometrical shapes using the shape recognizer, insert text with the keyboard and highlight screen areas. You can draw upon the desktop or select an image as background.

Commented 3 years later than planned, but i have only just heard about you so maybe you can let me off? :P

Moreover, Smoothboard has released its latest version which allows autoconnect mode. You should check out these updates yourself!

The .co.cc domain just loads it in a frame. The filtering system will simply block it whilst its in the frame. Because that is simply another web proxy. The .co.cc domain just loads it in a frame.

Thanks for that, however I don't use this method myself. I use SSH tunnels, I'm not too bothered about them seeing what I'm doing as I don't go on anything questionable, as the filter is fairly strong. Hi.

That solution has been done alot. But if the place where you're at has any *decent* form of proxy filtering software. For example, that SCANS pages and decides to block or not based on what it found would make your system not work. For example, say you were using your proxy on a decent proxy filter, it would filter it out coz it looks like a proxy. Oh and yeah, they can get your password for your .htaccess directory from the log file and re-create your session and see what it is if they so desired. A better solution would be SSL, to obfusicate and to .htaccess. Then this eliminates most problems. I say this coz it happened to my private proxy. Ba$ta*ds. Hmm. That solution has been done alot.
