Our brainstorming session: http://remc.adobeconnect.com/p3yw1z9eg9h/
My group used Adobe Connect as our web conferencing tool. We tried Vyew during the web conferencing lab, but decided that Adobe Connect would be a better fit. Adobe Connect was user friendly and we were able to record the session very easily.
One advantage of using web conferencing to discuss this project is the ease of talking back and forth with your group instead of having to wait for emails to be sent back and forth. Web conferencing for group projects is very efficient, especially with online courses, enabling us to collaborate from home. This is also helpful because you not only can read what your group members are typing, but you can also see them and hear what they are saying.
A disadvantage of using web conferencing to discuss this project is the need to meet online at the same time. With a big group, this could be difficult for people to meet online at the same time, especially when people are in different time zones. Also, it may be difficult to meet and record without any distractions from people in your house or workplace...or even trains that go by outside (like in our session).
I do enjoy the train effect near the end of your brainstorming session. Great job with your sharing through Google docs and Connect.
