		<description><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;Nice pointers you&#039;ve got, thanks.  I think the 24-48 hour time frame should be considered when sending notices ( emails, IM, etc. ).  Emergencies do come up and this time is great just to get people notified of any changes.  One must also have a backup plan if ever communication is disrupted an hour before/during the meeting ( server disconnection, power failure, virus, etc ).&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;Another suggestion for online meeting tools: TurboMeeting. I&#039;ve used it for a while now and its great. People can join in on meetings with their browsers without having to download anythings. Unlike other services I have used in the past, I never have to worry about someone not being able to attend the meeting. Plus, I never get excuses about not being able to log on to the meeting anymore :D&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;Great tool for setting international meeting times http://www.timeanddate.com&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When sending out a conference bridge for international participants try to provide a local dial in number (e.g., freephone number for UK participants rather than a US toll free number)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Make sure to list the full phone number for accessing the conference bridge.  For example +1 203 555 1234 rather than 555-1234 or 203-555-1234.  Do not assume your international participants know local area codes or dialing patterns.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Provide multiple access numbers to call into a conference bridge.  Some international mobile carriers will not allow calls to UK freephone numbers, for example, but if you provide a local dial in number for another country, your participants can still attempt to dial into the conference bridge.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Remember daylight savings time works opposite directions in the northern and southern hemispheres.  Spring forward, fall back does not work in Australia.  Also, thanks to the US Congress, daylight savings time changes at a different time in the US than the rest of the world.&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>
