Now I remember why James dropped tradingrooms. It's slower than molasses and will lock up your machine.
Don't know anything about gotomeeting.com, but it is not free.

I saw a guy here the other day he invited to skype, wonder if that can share charts... from the screen...

Came across AIM pro. It has desktop sharing. Not exactly sure how it works but its free and probably worth a look:

tradingrooms was a bit clumsy but had lots of features, people didn't like the idea of downloading then have it used to eat all the RAMs meant for their charts and trading platforms. The web-based chat was simple but lacked the real-time chart sharing. So for the real daytraders who share it made sense. There wasn't just enough interest to keep the room going.
