I found these days this open-source project which looks very promising, not just because it’s free, but also because it has a lot of features. As the presentation on their website says, VMukti offers:
file sharing, chat, telephony, video conferencing, remote management, CRM and more.
It is built using .NET 3.0/3.5.
I encourage you to download VMukti and vote it on SourceForge as "Best product for Educators"!
Happy collaboration!

Want to see the same images that scientists at NASA use for their research or perform your own research with those images? Or do you want to see the Earth from the same perspective that astronauts see as they descend to Earth? How about taking a 5 minute break and viewing a panorama of a different city? Install WorldWide Telescope and start your explorations.
