Abstract

A conference attendee uses a personal communications device such as a smart phone as a microphone to ask questions or otherwise engage in real time communications with other conference attendees and the host, through a speaker system being used in the conference. A server maintains a database of conference attendees, and serves a mobile Web page to each attendee permitting the attendee to request a real-time communication. The server flags records of those attendees that request a real-time communication. The server establishes no voice connection with a personal communications device until after the conference host selects a device from among a number of personal communications devices that have requested communications.
