4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the conference application is configured as a web application executable by a web browser.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the client application includes a version of a web browser and the operation of running comprises running the client application as a web application using the version of the web browser.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising using the conference application during the network conference.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising saving the recording of the conference application activity.
8. An apparatus for recording conference application activity associated with a network conference, the apparatus comprising:
a processor;
a memory device including instructions that are executable by the processor to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
activating a client application configured to provide functionality associated with a network conference, wherein the client application is configured to install and execute conference applications that provide additional functionalities than the functionality of the client application;
receiving, at the client application, a request to install at least one conference application;
installing, by the client application, the at least one conference application from a network server;
activating a recording of conference application activity to record activities associated with using a plurality of installed conference applications by the client application including the installed at least one conference application;
receiving a selection of a conference application from the plurality of installed conference applications;
running the selected conference application from the client application, wherein the selected conference application is run during at least one of before, during, and after a network conference;
exiting the network conference; and
completing the recording of the conference application activity.
9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise running the client application to communicate with one or more attendees over at least one of a wired and wireless network during the network conference.
10. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise receiving a selection of an application selector as user input and in response to the selection, displaying a list of the plurality of installed conference applications, and receiving additional user input to select the conference application from the list.
11. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the conference application is configured as a web application executable by a web browser.
12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the client application includes a version of a web browser and the client application is executed as a web application in the version of the web browser.
13. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the conference application is configured to provide at least one of word processing, calendar, and spreadsheet functionality.
14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the operations further comprise the recording of the conference application activity.
15. A non-transitory computer readable medium on which are stored program instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations of:
activating a client application configured to provide functionality associated with a network conference, wherein the client application is configured to install and execute conference applications that provide additional functionalities than the functionality of the client application;
receiving, at the client application, a request to install at least one conference application;
installing, by the client application, the at least one conference application from a network server;
activating a recording of conference application activity to record activities associated with using a plurality of installed conference applications by the client application including the installed at least one conference application;
receiving a selection of a conference application from the plurality of installed conference applications;
running the selected conference application from the client application, wherein the selected conference application is run during at least one of before, during, and after a network conference;
exiting the network conference; and
completing the recording of the conference application activity.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise saving the recording of the conference application activity.
