Hi Everyone,
This is from the Global Schoolhouse and is a note about software that
allows you to use a computer for videoconferencing. With this software,
all you need is a small camera (they can be had for $100), and you are in
business!
I'll bet that many of you out there are already aware of the possibilities
that this might offer and can offer some insights from your experience to
those who might like to try this.
