where can I do a video conferencing meeting on short notice?

April 4, 2018 8:37 PM

I have a gotomeeting meeting tomorrow morning and my computer is down. I need to be able to do screen sharing for part of the meeting. So I need access to a computer with a webcam and audio capabilities. I've tried calling the public libraries and FedEx kinkos to no avail. Is there a place I can go where I can have this meeting?

Where are you located? Your options and our recommendations will differ greatly on the basis of that. If you're in a big-enough city, a WeWork or other coworking space might have options for this.

Lots of business oriented hotels have conference rooms with computers set up for video conferencing available for rent by the hour/day.

Best answer: The GotoMeeting app fully supports video/audio/screen share on phones and tablets. If you actually need to host (sharing your screen) I'd bite the bullet and pickup a $169 laptop from a nearby BestBuy.

Regus business centers are in every major city and offer this service. Something like $25.

Probably too late now, but some of the Denver co-working spaces may have workstations already set up for this purpose. Worth calling. A quick search shows at least a half dozen.
