I have discovered that there are a whole array of new tools out there. Some of them are synchronous as well as asynchronous in nature. It is amazing what one can find and what other course participants are able to add to the list of tools of which I am aware.
Presently, I am reviewing a tool, Skype, which I thought could be used for audio and later video chat anywhere in the World where someone can access the Internet.
Well, this product is amazing (not to say that there aren't other amazing products available). I didn't realize that the audio / video option also has a chat component if you have any difficulty with your main line of communication.
It has numerous social networking tools with which one can interact over the net. Some of these are less useful for a serious chat but can come in handy for passing on information. The other option is to literally buy credits to use Skype from your computer and it allows you to call a land line next door or across the globe.
Other tools include Web Conferencing, Business Hook ups, and a multitude of options that weren't available even 3 years ago. Kids today are so lucky.
