Theos-Talk Archives (July 2006 Message tt00271)

Dear Perry and Leon,

I have been testing two recently developed projects for Skype, a free
instant messenger software.  The two features are Skypecasts and what
they call High Speed Conferencing, which is sort of the same thing,
only it is not linked from the Skype web site (who knows why?).  I am
going to be testing this and hope to get it going before the next
meeting.  I tried at the last minute last week, but I had some
technical surprises in rerouting the signal from Paltalk which I
should be able to avoid this week.

Here are some links to the projects I am refering to:
https://skypecasts.skype.com/skypecasts/home
http://www.highspeedconferencing.com/

The high speed conferencing looks more promissing because it offers a
free Skype number(works like a phone number) to call into to join.

Perhaps you or some others here would like to sign up for a free
account to help me test it?  If so, please send me an email. (  You
can get your own free conference number, etc, for up to 500 users -
Macos X, Linux,and Windows).

namaste, Truth C.
