Online Meeting Services

If you work from home, or just at a company with employees scattered around the globe in different offices, you need a tool to let you all set eyes on one another, share the same screen, collaborate on documents, and collectively work together even though you're miles apart. This week we'd like to know which service you or your company uses to get the job done.

It's been a while since we talked about online meeting services, and we thought it was time to check back and see if the landscape has changed. New features have appeared with better features, and even some social networks like Google+ have added screen sharing and collaboration features. Let us know which tool you think is the best in the comments below.

Hive Five nominations take place in the comments, where you post your favorite tool for the job. We get hundreds of comments, so to make your nomination clear, please include it at the top of your comment like so: VOTE: BEST ONLINE MEETING SERVICE. Please don't include your vote in a reply to another commenter. Instead, make your vote and reply separate comments. If you don't follow this format, we may not count your vote. To prevent tampering with the results, votes from first-time commenters may not be counted. After you've made your nomination, let us know what makes it stand out from the competition.

About the Hive Five: The Hive Five feature series asks readers to answer the most frequently asked question we get: "Which tool is the best?" Once a week we'll put out a call for contenders looking for the best solution to a certain problem, then YOU tell us your favorite tools to get the job done. Every weekend, we'll report back with the top five recommendations and give you a chance to vote on which is best. For an example, check out last week's five best wallpaper sites.
