Collaborate Online With Whiteboards

Bev Butula, manager of library services at Wisconsin law firm of Davis & Kuelthau, has written a short article (Online collaborative whiteboards: An alternative to the face-to-face meeting?) on using online whiteboards to enhance online meeting and collaboration. Virtual whiteboards allow you (and others) to write or draw images on an online canvas--a feature that can make teleconferencing and online meetings much more effective, especially when working on specific documents or brainstorming. She lists some quick pros and cons, as well as some sites that offer free or low-cost access to interactive whiteboards.
