I received an invitation to join in an online call w/President Obama, so of course I signed up.

The call is scheduled for today at 11:30 am. Has anyone here ever participated in one of these calls?

Do I need any special software, other than a web browser? Is the call something like a chat session, or just one way?

I just don't know how it works, and would hate to miss out because I hadn't installed some piece of software...

Thanks!

No you don't need special software, but don't hang up! It's mostly a listen in.
