Top 20 Free Video Conferencing Tools 2013

Top 20 Free Video Conferencing Tools 2013 | Wiki_Universe | Scoop.it
Best free downloadable and web-based video conferencing tools for holding multi-party video calls

I haven't dived into this list to look at any of these but Gee...I'm impressed!  I've never heard of any of these!  I do think that video conferencing is something that businesses could really use more to their advantage.  Of course, HangOuts kinda serves a similiar purpose too.

 

Thanks Robin!  Good work.

Dena Patrick|Wishadoo's comment, April 26, 7:24 AM
Thanks! Is there a reason Hangouts isn't included?
Robin Good's comment, April 26, 9:56 AM
No, no reason. I have just not added it yet.

7 Data Visualization Tools You Can Use In The Classroom

7 Data Visualization Tools You Can Use In The Classroom | Wiki_Universe | Scoop.it

No matter what happens, there will always be a demand for data visualization tools. Data on its own can be pretty boring and brightening it up with images and other visual tools, it can make normally inaccessible information much easier to digest. (Editor’s Note: It’s also great for information reading literacy, and the new Common Core demand for multimedia “texts.”)

 

There are a number of fantastic tools out there that will present your data in an accessible manner. All of the tools listed below are free and chances are you’ve used one or two of the tools mentioned before.

Adapter is an excellent free video conversion tool with no strings attached.


Available as freeware for both Macs and PCs it offers both a rich set of conversion presets for most any kind of device as well as the possibility to manually set specific conversion parameters such video format, encoder, resolution, bitrate, video size, audio settings and more.


Adapter can also download most any Fash-based video on the web and auto-convert it in your preferred format and it can trim to your preference.


Free to download and use.

Adapter can be as simple or as advanced as you want. You can keep things simple and stick to presets or tweak settings to your heart's content.

Choose your video encoder, frame rate, bit rate, sample rate, audio encoder, number of channels, and more!

I'm looking forward to trying this one out.  Convert video files to something usable on an iPad?  Nice!
