DigitalChalk: 10 (Free!) Conferencing Tools

eLearning professionals are constantly collaborating and meeting with one another, and for many, GoToMeeting is their tool of choice. It is one of the most popular and you can easily host a number of people with no problem. Downside: there is a monthly fee. Luckily, there are many other (free!) conferencing tools and we’ve narrowed it down to these 10.
