    Rhett,

    Great post – this has been a major part of discussion over the last few years in what we do. I even visited a simular location in Santa Monica on my last visit to Bel Air – Here’s a recent post I did that was initiated from simular conversation:

    Hi,

    Agree that moderator tools are needed for conference admins.

    One thing about conferences is that you might want to make them interactive. For example, you could share a YouTube Video or SlideShare presentation & then have folks talk about it. As I know some folks probably post to a YouTube channel or something, it could be an easy way to spur conversation (see more info here: http://blog.tokbox.com/2008/11/tokbox-share-youtu

    I would also strongly recommend adding contacts so you can also have control over which parties you want to participate in a conversation. If you don't want to tweet out a conference url, you can still initiate a private conversation by conferencing in only people you want to talk to.

    Believe me, we're always interested in feedback as to what can be done better for any of our products. Video mails to damon@tokbox.com are welcome, or you can also ping our product manager (chris@tokbox.com).
