How to Share a Keynote Presentation in iChat

If you're a Mac user who wants to skip an in-person meeting, try using iChat instead. IChat is Apple's real-time audio and video conferencing application bundled in Mac OS X. With iChat Theater, you can also share Keynote slide presentations with one another. The Keynote slideshow creator shares and controls the pace of the presentation in an iChat window, while the other Mac user views the slideshow, just like in person, but on a smaller scale.
