Quite a surprise for me was the usefulness of Skype for a collaborative session yesterday. A surprise because of the usefulness due to it's simplicity...let me explain...
Three of us were in the conversation (Janet, Joyce and I) and we tried a few scenarios (typing, different conversations, MSN etc) before we stuck with a hosted conversation in Skype. Once were were connected and all on the same page the conversation flowed and the technology fell into the background...as is ideal.
We played with a bunch of tools, including Skribble (http://www.skrbl.com) and talked about where we are at in terms of our facilitated pages...a great conversation which highlighted the usefulness of a "simple" and common tool as Skype...
Chris :-)
