[Icvv] real-time chat and voice options

[David Rosen]

ICVV Colleagues,

Richard Potvin has a  message for participants of the International  
Classroom Virtual Visit project which may be of interest.  He offers  
a service for which there is a modest cost, and while it is not part  
of the ICVV project, it may be useful for those who want real-time  
voice and and chat.

I would like to introduce you to live on-line Virtual Class Room. A  
virtual class room would enable you to invite teachers, students or  
class rooms to join you in a safe, secure environment for live audio- 
video conversations and collaboration. The rooms have unlimited  
seating, each room owner can invite as many guests to their virtual  
class room as they want by simply emailing an invitation and the room  
key (link) to their guests. The rooms also provide free long distance  
communication so you can talk without incurring any charges and this  
with others throughout the World, you could even use a virtual class  
room to create your own electronic-pal network.

I have set up a sample room that all participants can use for the  
next 30 days. If you would like to try it out please email me at  
rdppops at sympatico.ca for details and instructions. regards Richard  
Potvin, Quebec, Canada.
