Did You Hear About Freeconference.com?
As the Consumer Health Coordinator my job involves a lot of coordination, which means I do a lot of talking. I am involved in different MLA juries and committees, NLM committees, and community projects. The logistics of schedule coordination can be a nuisance. Welcome to Freeconference.com, a valuable conference call service tool. Freeconference.com offers FREE conference calls through its web site. It is a service available to anyone and everyone, 24 hours a day. They provide a secure and private venue for you to meet by telephone with your colleagues, relatives or girlfriends - at your convenience - without having to leave your office seat.
Activating your account is painless, and it doesn’t require any subscription fee or credit card to get started. Don’t worry if you have lots of questions, the Help feature is quite useful.
The Standard service is FREE; the only cost that you or your participants will incur is long distance charges for calling the Las Vegas area phone number that the service provides. The Premium 800 service provides, as the name implies, a toll-free number, but you will need to pay $.10/minute per participant in the call.
As the conference organizer, I call in a minute or two before the call is scheduled to start. When calling in, you are asked to provide your access code; you are then told how many callers are currently on the call, then you are asked to announce yourself at the beep. A tone that can be heard by all chimes you in, and ready, get set go…and let your teleconference begin.
