Darcy, thanks a million! I can't believe that I didn't have the foresight to try something like that. It worked beautifully and for that I am grateful to you.
I believe that in many situations, we automatically assume that something can't be done when, in all actuality, there is a simple solution. Thanks so much once again!

When recording podcasts, most of us do infact use skype. It's actually really easy to set up a conference. When you're talking to someone, switch back to the main skype window. Find the third person of your conference in your contacts list, do a VO shift M on their name to bring up a context menu, and select add to conference. Repeat this to add additional people. I don't know if there's a limit to how many people you can have, or if it's a matter of bandwidth. The largest conference I've been in had 6 participants.

We have decided to use Skype as our communications platform as we plan the event. I know that people like Josh, Cara and the screenless switchers use some sort of voice chat client when they do their roundtable discussions, so I know that what I wish to do can be accomplished in some way. My preference would be to use Skype but if it doesn't work or the Skype conferencing features can't be accessed through Voice Over, then I am open to any alternatives. Ideally, however, setting this up on Skype would be best since all of us already have this program.
