Could this be used to do remote support? Where the app user initiates a support session (or via push message) or something) and then the admin can walk them through things?
This also looks really useful for learning applications, for example where the learner needs to be guided remotely by a teacher, mentor or peer. Could even facilitate some fascinating collaborative learning exploration if it is extended a bit further.
Wow... just jumped into the beta and had a conference call going in a couple of minutes. Not entirely sure how I'd fit in the use of this yet, but it seems pretty cool!
Yeah, well. I didn't appreciate the spam marketing they did to me today. I got an email stating that I seemed heavily involved in CocoaPods and I might enjoy their software with a link using a campaign URL. They even used my real name, which nothing uses that unless I have paid them as I always go by a nickname. So, I am not sure how they got my info and why they would come up with some BS about CocoaPods.
Here is the email, who sold me out?
Hi <my name>
I noticed you're petty active in the online CocoaPods community. I'm a big believer that online contributions rarely go unrewarded, so I thought it'd be cool to share with you this awesome SDK called ShowKit.
It lets you add Audio+Video Conferencing to your iOS apps as well as Screen Sharing. I think it's cool since users won't have to leave my app anymore to make calls or share documents.
You can also check it our for free with my promo code (some_code) if you'd like here
Thxs for your time <my name> . Look forward to learning more in the forums from you :)
ShowKit announced support for CocoaPods in a recent release ( http://blog.showkit.com/post/50453719278/showkit-beta-0-2-3-... ). I oversee the marketing efforts for ShowKit. Sorry for the overzealous approach. Most likely an overly ambitious junior level business development associate. I'm looking into the specific details behind this outreach and will make sure the practice is discontinued. If you have any future issues, or want to get a hold of us: http://chat.showkit.com/
I am just not a fan of fishing. The "I noticed you're petty active in the online CocoaPods community." and how my real name came in on my gmail account means that some other company sold you the address/info. Grr, I am more angry with them than you. My ex's profession was marketing and we use to have some heated debates about certain practices.
So I did a bit of detective work -- and as it turns out, the company you ought to be upset with is Google. Apparently, if you add a Google Group email to your Google Calendar event, and then you select "don't send invite email", the Google Calendar event displays the emails of all the people in that group (along with names). Anyway, just thought I'd through that out there, as it was a surprise to me as well.
We're working on a browser plugin currently, and are enthusiastically watching WebRTC developments so we will certainly have a product for web down the road.

Anyway, hope your product does well!
