IBM Sametime Video Chat Plug-in for IBM Connections Technology Preview

For those of you who have attended or watched the livestream of Lotusphere 2012 Opening Session, you may have seen a very awesome integration between IBM Connections, Sametime & Polycom RealPresence Platform: The ability to do a spontaneous video chat from a widget inside an IBM Connections community...

A piece of that demo have just been delivered as a preview on IBM DeveloperWorks.

The IBM Sametime Video Chat Plug-in uses a Sametime meeting room to make it easy for people viewing an IBM Connections Community to get together for a spontaneous video chat. The widget is very simple, consisting only of a "Join" button and a counter showing how many people are currently in the video enabled meeting room. When individuals click to join, they are taken into a custom meeting room which includes only the video panel and associated audio/video controls, and the list of participants in the room. Audio and video are automatically started for each person as soon as they enter the room.

I'm attending Team Polycom, but when I'm back in France, I will try it and publish some pictures of that via Polycom integration...
