Developed by the creator of Google Voice, UberConference is a teleconferencing service with a web view that increases the productivity of conference calls.

"The BART strike is making it painful and time consuming for commuters to get to work.  Many are coping by working-from-home until it's over, and right now, there seems to be no end in sight," said Craig Walker, co-founder and CEO at UberConference.  "Conference calling hasn't improved in decades and it's a pain. UberConference fixes all the broken aspects of traditional conference calling so people can be more productive at work, at home, or from anywhere."
