Participate in Meetings
You can participate in Sametime meetings in the following ways:
Use Chat
You can use Meeting Room chat to send typed messages to everyone in the
meeting. You can also send private chat messages to selected participants.
Use chat if audio is not available or if you need to ask a question and do not
want to disturb the audio portion of the meeting. For example, you can use
chat to request permissions from the Moderator.
