When is MS going to understand that emailing someone a meeting link is not a solution a good chunk of the time because of spam filters (last time I checked hotmail still blocks live meeting emails for example)

I want a short number that I can give the person so that they can get in over the phone without having to have received the email from me otherwise it's useless as a sales tool.

Quinn here from the Live Meeting product team. John thanks for your feedback. We also find frequently find ourselves in the situation you describe: In a call and then a document, some data, etc comes up and it would be great to just show that to the person right then and maybe even work on or trouble shoot it then and there. For us with Office Communication Server deployed we have a button in our cal control to do just that. However, if the other person doesn't have Office Communicator, you're right, given the current meeting urls, the scenario break. We've heard (and felt) this pain and are targeting short simple urls aggressively for the next release. If you are a passionate Live Meeting user definitely use the forums to try to get in on the betas. Thanks again! Quinn
