Dear Hannah, Here's a blog post from Earthjustice's IT director about their videoconferencing project: http://unearthed.earthjustice.org/2009/05/flying-in-place-videoconferencing. html
I'm sure he'd be happy to answer questions. Here's his personal blog site with contact info: http://www.techcafeteria.com/ Robert __________________________ Robert L.

While face-to-face meetings are always valuable, it's been difficult to attract participation from throughout our 500 mile-long Corridor for some of the shorter workshops and meetings. Therefore, I'm exploring conference-calling and on-line meeting options. I'd be extremely grateful if I could benefit from existing research especially explorations that have been done by more tech-savvy people than me! Here are some of the features that I'd like to have: Access by 50+ people at a time Low cost Simple for everyone with a computer or phone to participate (not requiring downloads if possible, etc.) mechanism for facilitation by us to prevent everyone from talking over each other Thanks for any assistance the group can provide!
