    I agree this should be a very useful tool.
    In fact specially when one is travelling so often on business it will come in very handy

    Hi Keith,

    Thanks for taking the time to review Mikogo and post it here on your site. Great to see!
    Btw, we just released a news story detailing the use of the Mikogo Skype Extra. You can read the story here at Forbes.com but I think you would enjoy checking out the new Mikogo Skype web page with tutorial videos.
    If you have any questions about Mikogo, feel free to contact me.

    Thanks again. All the best,

    Andrew
