It's a better idea to put that info in a gist or an email so it doesn't clutter the thread.
denismars
try this - in your chrome://plugins/ page enable the non-chrome built-in flash (the one that has Location: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin) and disable the chrome built-in flash - this may be a quick fix for now until we figure out why the built-in version is playing up

I tried to sign up twice and it just clears the form.
denismars
for most cases where this happens - make sure you enter a valid password by typing it in and not via copy n paste - we only allow signups if real people entered the password.. we're gonna put up a dialog to say this v. soon
spicyj
Can you turn that off? Many people use password managers.

This is where a seemingly good ux and anti-spam measure actually gets in the way of some users.
denismars
just pushed up an update to detect change events on the password field - this should now enable password extensions to work - although the other fields (name, email) still have a keyup event detection to detect real users

And why have you decided to enforce that?
drivebyacct2
In case it wasn't obvious from the other comments, this is a pretty tremendously bad idea. Not to mention easily circumvented by anyone interested.

Where is the information on the adobe plugin you are using to do screensharing? Looked into doing it before but had to use java- Would love to play with the adobe version but I thought it was lifecycle only....
veyron
Isn't this essentially cannibalizing ScreenLeap (YC W12)?
denismars
not really. ScreenLeap is catering for a dead-simple screen sharing service used in conjunction with any communications medium (phone, email, skype etc) - whereas meetings.io is enabling screen sharing wholly within the meeting.io experience.

Whats the plan for making money? Is this ya - join.me?
denismars
we have an exciting new monetization strategy that will enable free use of our services and does not rely on advertising - stay tuned for more very soon :)
eps
join.me is LogMeIn

It requires the Adobe ConnectNow plugin for screensharing so it doesn't work on linux.

Only 5 people at a time? That seems very low number of participants.
denismars
we have plans to open it to unlimited participants - stay tuned for this and more shortly
