Hi Aibek and crew,
Sharing web cams is a nice personal way to meet over the Web, but for business needs desktop sharing provides a great way to share screen content to your meeting participants.
You might be interested to check out our HTML Viewer which is part of Mikogo’s desktop sharing program. This is a browser based option for participants to join sessions without downloads and with no ActiveX, Java, or Flash. This is new for Mikogo: http://www.mikogo.com/product/html-viewer/
If you have any questions about this, feel free to contact me.
Thanks!

Hi Andrew,
We lean mostly towards free app which our readers can use. Nonetheless, thanks for dropping by and the link.
This sounds very intriguing …. but …. I work with individuals who are blind. Would this be accessible by screen readers?
I hope the developer answers this one for you. Does the screen reader you use, handle Flash based apps? If it does, then you can use it I think. Though, only the audio would be of use naturally.
On he other hand, if you are looking for specific accessibility tools, you can ask in our Answers section [http://www.makeuseof.com/answers/] where we have a pretty knowledgeable crowd in our readers.
