"Conversation. What is it? A Mystery! It's the art of never seeming bored, of touching everything with interest, of pleasing with trifles, of being fascinating with nothing at all. How do we define this lively darting about with words, of hitting them back and forth, this sort of brief smile of ideas which should be conversation?" Guy de Maupassant

Skype Conference Calls

Here's some great news for all Skype fans - they have conferencing calls enabled now - upto five people can talk simultaneously from anywhere in the world.

Stuart, who introduced me to Skype, hosted a brief call last night to test it out - was really neat - very clear sound and no disturbance at all - there were 2 people in California, 1 person in France and me in India.  For more details, experiences and perspectives on this disruptive technology and its potential in an "always on" world, read his recent posts on the subject.  

Am dreaming  .... now that one of my wishes has been fulfilled,  i have another dream that wants this technology on a small handset, mobile and off the PC, so i could be 'always on' as i will, just about anywhere ! 

And then another dream of seeing this technology integrated into collaboration spaces and social networks ....
