Looks promising. Lots of small UI/UX things: 1. Wasn't clear how to move objects around (the iconography for the buttons can use some improvement). 2. Delete/erase button is pretty confusing too - again, it wasn't clear how to actually erase something. 3. The bg music on voice chat is unnecessary in my view. I hate that in most conferencing solutions.. :P 4. If conferencing/collaboration is high volume use case, i'd be curious to know why you chose to hide those options under a menu...

Hope this helps.

Another small UX thing: Never use window.prompt(). On Chrome at least it prevents me from switching tabs, I know on some systems it also plays an annoying sound.
