Hi -
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good tool that will allow me to lead a web-browsing session with multiple users? Basically, what I want is for users to attach to the session, and see what I see on my browser.

Hi Martin -
I'm just taking a look at this product, but it looks like it need to run a server application on a windows machine that is also a web server serving out to the web. Is this correct? (Have you used it?)
Hmmmm. Maybe I can open a port for it in the firewall....
I've been playing with it, and it seems to work, although twice it killed mine and another's Internet connection .
Have you ever used it with more than one person sharing it?
Hi Mike,
We use Learnlinc for this purpose. It is a multipoint audioconferencing tool (one-on-many), which has some virtual classroom tools, chat and an interactive browser window. It is, however, a commercial product and it does involve downloading and installing client software.
Since I prefer open source software, I will check out Martin's suggestion.
Another commercial product, more limited in scope than Learnlinc, but which can be used even in combination with a whiteboard is eBeam.
Rgrds,
Paul.
I tried a web-based service called "Glance" (http://www.glance.net). It worked very well. They have a free trial you can use, that is fully active, and the service is not that expensive. It is based on "VNC" technology, and requires no set-up for you or your viewers (it uses background java downloads).
