Freeconference.com isn't necessarily free, but it is effective

So last month I spoke about Skype for a VOIP telephony solution for your business. Today I'm going to introduce you to www.freeconference.com. Now, as the title says, FC is not necessarily free - some of their service offerings will cost you - but the expense really is negligible when compared to functionality and when considered in light of more and more employees working remotely. As well, what if you're getting advice from board members who live on the other side of the state or who just never have the time to meet? Or you want to speak with someone in another country about how they manage their supply chain for goods very similiar to you own? Regardless, I think freeconference.com is worth a look-see.

Using Skype to Record Phone Interviews for Your Nonprofit Podcast or Blog

Britt Bravo — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 18:30:52 -0500

Do you have ideas for people you'd like to interview over the phone for your nonprofit podcast or blog, but don't know the best way to record it? The past few interviews I've done for the NetSquared Podcast and blog have been done over the phone with Skype. It took me a while to find recording software I liked for Skype, so I thought I'd share my findings. I have a Mac, so I use Ecamm's Call Recorder for Skype. It is only $15 and has worked really well for me so far. My only complaint is that it records my questions and the interviewee's answers as one track. Ideally our voices would be on two separate tracks.
