A lot of people use the http://internetmeetings.org calendar to help plan for least-collision. But yeah, there was a day in February with seven simultaneous meetings in different places. And there were a half-dozen days last year that peaked at seven simultaneous meetings. 2012 wasn’t so bad, with only a couple of days peaking at 5 simultaneous meetings. July and August are always the most sparsely-scheduled, but also the most difficult to get people from Europe to attend, since they take holidays those months. -Bill
