Ever wonder why we called our new site "Pass the Ball"?
Apart from thinking we are horribly clever, it actually has it's roots in WebEx!
When you are in a WebEx and you want to share or transfer control of a meeting, you "pass the ball" to the next presenter. Now that sounds pretty formal - you don't have to be a presenter - it more like the next person who wants to "drive" the meeting by sharing their desktop, manipulate the material everyone is looking at and more.
If you have never passed the ball, you should give it a try. It's truly one of the benefits of using WebEx and it is a powerful tool. I have actually used it to do something as simple as provide tech support to my mom - I passed her the ball during a WebEx to figure out what she was doing wrong in a document she was trying to create. Watching her actions let me cut to the chase and get her on the right track without having to drive to her house!
If you haven't tried WebEx for sharing your ideas, now is the time. There's no reason to put it off - you can try it absolutely free. So come on - Pass the Ball!
