Webinar issues on chrome OS cr-48

This evening I was planning on participating in the Google Seminar online "Building a class site with Google Sites" which was being offered through webex.com. 


Unfortunately that didn't work well in Chrome.  


There are three plug-ins that were needed and only one is a web based format. 

  • FlashPlayer 6.0 or later- check
  • Windows Media Player 9.0 or later- nope
  • QuickTime 6.0 or later- nope

When starting the webinar it was missing a plugin even though flash player was tested and working.


I had to switch over to my HP desktop without any issues, in Chrome.


Part of this is just having developers start moving their apps and programs online rather than as desktop programs.  My guess is somebody else will develop a webinar app without the need for desktop software.


Testing onward!  (good webinar on building a googlesite for a classroom application.
