I am curious to know who has a web cam and is there interest in a group meeting.
With Skype we would be one on one without paying.
GMail + can do 5 or 6 at once I believe.

What options are there. What are your thoughts. Is there any interest in this? Open for discussion...

I skype conference without a web cam so I have no problem conferencing if you want to start a group to do work on the site... or other projects.

Sure

I use skype to conference call with V3rd3,Dragneye and Rayman once a week or so. Its always a blast and I usually learn something new.

But there is also this free option I was looking at for our project. http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx. We voted to stay with skype but if you have a large group you can have up to 25 at one time I think with the free version. I believe we decided against it because some of us were a bit nervous about the remote desktop/access part of it.

I've got Skype, I use it to talk with my parents, I also have a somewhat crude webcam but it can certainly be used in an emergency

Teamviewer is a useful program, I also use it to remotely fix problems on my parents PC now and then. Don't worry about the remote access part, I think you can disable that in your settings.

What have you got in mind there, Mr. Steinie?

Teamviewer is a much better option as I use it very often at work and home.
I use it at work to conduct online conferences with the board members and it does not have a limit to the amount of people that can join.
I use it from home to fix my dad's computer when he has messed something up.

I can install skype or any other which you all decide.
I am interested to see where this is going .
Cool idea Steinie

Will Skype work with a dialup connection? I'd be interested in my case to connect with others online. MSN messenger works okay but the tranny rate is horrible on a 56k connect. Cheers.

Hi BNG ,I think skype will work but the web cam might be slow.
i will install skype and you can pm me with your skype name and we could test it.
or anyone who whant to chat just pm me with your skype name

I would suggest you just stay with voice only on a 56k connection.... the video consumption of bandwidth will overwhelm the connection.

i think skype newly offers more than two way video, not sure right now.

I have skype, coz its more comon and also ooVoo which is much more cool for video. Who wants to, can find me. My nick is the same there.

I just gave your name in and there are lots of you,which one.
my skype name is ralph.pugsley2

Look at teamviewer it is free for what you are wanting to do and has alot of option to share your desktop and do presentations.
The only downside to the free version is that your password changes each time you start a new session.
Try it I believe you will find it work way better than skype for sharing info and doing tutorials.

Skype has an chat for the call where you can share files etc... also has a screen sharing set up where participants in the call can watch your screen or you theirs.

I would like to test skype and see how the share screen works,
Anyone who has interest is welcome to ring me .
name is in the above post

No one up for testing this skype share screen
If someone has a spare 5 mins search for my name ralph.pugsley2
and we can try it
Thanks Ralph

Hang in there Pugman because I'll be testing soon. I'm just into a very busy project right now.

Yes, I'm down to testing it. I use skype sometimes (as I had a long distance relationship once!). I'll be logged in all day today. Add me and drop a call. I have no webcam at the moment, but we can try out the Screen. My user name and details is in a PM.

just spoke with v3r3d ,the share screen works ,we can use it for showing
different things we do in the apps what we have tuts or just helping .
Its cool .
