NCSA (the folks responsible for Image and Telnet) just announced a new 
groupware package for the Mac that includes a 'white board' and some sort 
of real-time shared image analysis. It's called Collage and is available 
via anonymous FTP from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu. Look in the Mac/Collage 
directory for the most recent Beta. It's a pretty big program; about 1.7M.

Don't know much more about it (am planning on looking at it soon, 
though); this is all from a short blurb in a recent MacWeek.

Hope this does what you're looking for...
