Advice

Good advice to John, my friends. Unfortunately advice can only go so far in personal situations because our own souls often have lessons in mind for us to learn from which there is no escape. The important thing is to make a decision (like in he parable) and move ahead. As you move ahead greater light will come. Follow whatever light you receive, no matter how difficult and things will work out in the end.

I also have a question to ask the group. I have been doing a bit of research and see that software is now available for conference type calls through the web. In other words, we could all log on to this technology and talk back and forth as if we were in a large auditorium, if I understand correctly.

Here are some websites dealing with this:

This last one I think sounds the most interesting.

My question is this:
Have any of you had any experience with such conferencing software and if so how practical do you think it would be for teaching purposes?
