An apparatus, system and method of providing feedback to a presenter in an
e-meeting in which visual information is being presented are provided.
During presentation, the computer system of each participant is monitored
to ensure that the window in which the visual information is being
presented (i.e., the e-meeting window) is the window in focus. If the
e-meeting window is not the window in focus, the presenter is notified.
Generally, to notify the presenter, a status message is sent from the
computer system on which the e-meeting window is not the window in focus
to a server. There, status messages from different computer systems are
combined together. The combined status message is then periodically sent
to the presenter.
