TodaysMeet: There are LOTS of free tools to use
for backchannel chatting (basically, conducting
an online conversation while another face-toface conversation or meeting is going on), but
TodaysMeet is a favorite because it's simple to
use, free, and the conversation itself can be
quickly downloaded and saved. Further, you can
determine how quickly the chat itself disappears
from the web. Since no registration is required
and YOU determine the name of the room,
there's an element of security built in too!

The backchannel is everything going on in the
room that isn't coming from the presenter.
The backchannel is where people ask each other
questions, pass notes, get distracted, and give
you the most immediate feedback you'll ever get.
Instead of ignoring the backchannel, TodaysMeet
helps you leverage its power.
Tapping into the backchannel lets you tailor and
direct your presentation to the audience in front
of you, and unifying the backchannel means the
audience can share insights, questions and
answers like never before.
