Groupboard now uses 100% size by default

We recently added an "Auto" sizing option to Groupboard, so that the whiteboard fills the entire browser window (and changes size as you change the browser window size). All Groupboard rooms are now 100% size by default.

To see an example of the new auto-sizing, go to:

Groupboard Demo

Auto upload to YouTube now available for Groupworld recordings

Groupworld now offers the ability to automatically upload your Groupworld web conferencing session recordings to YouTube after each session. Contact us to set this up. YouTube recordings can be public, private or unlisted.

HTML5 Groupworld now supports Windows 10 Edge browser

The new Microsoft Edge browser (the replacement for Internet Explorer in Windows 10) now supports HTML5 audio/video conferencing, so you can now use the HTML5 version of Groupworld with no plugins required. All features except desktop sharing and drag+drop are supported (but drag+drop should hopefully be supported in future versions of Edge).

Download as png option added to Save function in Groupboard

We have recently added a "download as png" option to the Save window in Groupboard and Groupboard Designer, allowing you to download the whiteboard picture to your computer.

Firefox now supports desktop sharing in Groupworld HTML5 client

Firefox has recently added a desktop sharing feature, which means that you can now use desktop sharing in the HTML5 Groupworld client on firefox (as well as Chrome), without requiring any plugins.

Groupworld HTML5 client now default for Firefox

Now that Firefox supports all of Groupworld's HTML5 features, we have made it so that Firefox users are automatically redirected to the HTML5 client when using Groupworld, as the HTML5 version of Groupworld should give the best experience on Firefox. Additionally, Firefox includes built-in features such as echo cancellation and automatic gain control, which means that users don't need to worry as much about echos and microphone volume when using Firefox with Groupworld.
