    You can try GoToMeeting for free here

    GoToMeeting is a strong online meeting contender. It has a low cost compared to some of the older products, and is probably requries the least technical ability out of all the options. WebEx have a number of different packages available, and has very mature products DimDim and Zoho both produce open source offerings that are a great choice for any Linux users. Yugma is the new guy on the field, and is perhaps the least polished. Microsoft Live Meeting lacks features but not surprisingly integrates well with other office products. Adobe connect.. well Im not a fan. Web Huddle however is one of the better options for those looking for a basic, free meeting solution.

    As far as I am aware GoToMeeting doesn’t support Linux. However, WebEx does work with Linux. You could also try VNC.
