Microsoft Office Live Meeting is a Web conference tool to make online meetings more productive and engaging. Live Meeting works with an audio conference provider and enhances conventional audio-only teleconferencing with visuals that include Microsoft PowerPoint presentations and other documents to be shared with meeting participants. With Live Meeting, a presenter can conduct a product demonstration in a meeting room while online participants watch the demonstration remotely, together with those in the meeting room. A presenter can make a meeting more interactive by conducting polls among meeting participants or get feedback from them online. Furthermore, Live Meeting is integrated with other applications such as Microsoft Office Outlook® and Office Communicator.
