Information
Introducing Meet, a new free video conferencing software from Google.
With Google Meet, you can hold impromptu video meetings on the go, virtual training classes around the world, remote interviews, and much more. You can host a Hangouts Meet video meeting for up to 25 people at a time, with no time limit. (Dial-in using a phone number not currently supported in Australia)
It’s easy to schedule a Meet video meeting in Google Calendar—just create an event and add your guests to it. A video meeting link can be added to a calendar event either by adding one or more guests to the event (by default it will add a meeting link. You will need to click 'remove' if you do not want this meeting to contain a video link), or by clicking on Add video meeting details. After you save the event, a meeting link is added to the event.
Note: Guests can forward the meeting link to other people. If someone tries to join who was not invited to the Calendar event, a meeting participant from your organization must accept their request.
You can join a meeting various ways. If you navigate to https://meet.google.com/ or download the 'Meet' app from your app store on a mobile device, and login with your CES username and password, you will be shown a page that shows your upcoming meetings. You can join directly from here or connect using the unique code at the end of the generated link in your calendar.
You can also join by going to the calendar entry for the meeting, and clicking on the 'Joining info' link. This will take you directly into the meeting.
You can present your screen, or even just a particular app on your computer to the conference. You also have the ability for Text Chat within the meeting, if it is required.
