There are some good systems available for holding online meetings. However, many of these have a significant cost and if you're still in that phase of testing out whether these processes will be useful for you why pay money to test? There are some excellent freebie systems available with some of them having more features and flexibility that the pay-for versions.
I like to use http://www.dimdim.com/. Why? Apart from the fact it is free it one of the key factors for me is that the attendees do not have any software to download. You just set up the session and they log in and we're sharing and collaborating. Many organisations limit the downloading of software so this is a quick and easy way to test how the technology can work without stressing the IT department.
There are other freebie systems available so do some searches if you're looking for alternative to the pay-for options.

Sarah,
Hi there! My name is Robert O'Neill and I work for Glance Networks, where we produce another webconferencing and screensharing tool known as Glance. We try very hard to make Glance the absolute simplest and most dependable program out there; we know you have to spend your time focusing on your work, rather than the software you're using to do it! We're currently offering a deal to bloggers such as yourself where, if you sign up for our free trial at www.glance.net and email me your username at bobby@glance.net, I'll extend the trial from one week to one year!
I hope you take us up on our offer and best of luck with everything!
