Vyew.com is another free online collaboration system. Unlike ShowDocument and similar products, Vyew offers both synchronized and asynchronized collaboration, so documents can be preloaded, reviewed after the meeting is over, etc. The perpetual component is of significant value if not everyone can make it to the meeting at the same time or if it is a professional presentation that you want to setup and test before going in front of a live web audience.
