Abstract
An electronic meeting tool for communicating arbitrary media content from users at a meeting includes a node configuration operating a display node of a communications network that is coupled to a display. The node configuration receives user selected arbitrary media content and controls display of the user selected arbitrary media content on the display. At least one peripheral device communicates the user selected arbitrary media content via the communications network. The peripheral device is a connection unit including a connector that couples to a port of a processing device having a second display, a memory and an operating system; and a transmitter communicating with the communications network. A program is provided to run on the operating system of the processing device and obtains user selected arbitrary media content, while leaving a zero footprint on termination.
