  • CoCoTALK! Audio Test (we're researching a new conference platform)

    With the recent updates to Skype, which we're not a fan of, we've been forced to search for an alternative video conferencing platform, we've been trying a few features and platforms, last night we did a live stream test with our latest experiment, and we think we're going to go with this platform.  This audio is being posted, so we can hear the audio quality of the service to make sure it will meet the podcast quallity standards as well.
