I just discovered a unique video chat service called Tokbox (www.tokbox.com). Tokbox has both free and premium services and allows you to communicate with contacts in a number of creative ways. You can start a video chat with a contact, schedule a video chat (Premium service), broadcast a video chat and even send video messages via email.
One potential use of Tokbox for ministry is the ability to gather teams together for video chats and eliminate the need for team members to travel to a central location for a meeting. Tokbox is a great tool for teams because it allows for groups of up to 20 people to video chat together. In addition, sending video email messages through Tokbox increases your ability to communicate with others in ways that are limited by email alone. Churches and ministry leaders are also using Tokbox for Bible studies and other types of training.
I encourage you to set up a free account at Tokbox and let me know how you are using this internet service.
