Tools for Real Time Video Discussion

Saw this cool article in School Library Journal August 2012 titled Making the Most of Video in the Classroom that listed tools to use to enable discussion via chat while a group of people watch a video.
  • SynchTube
  • Google+ Hangouts- youtube only and limited to 10 participants
  • Watch2gether- youtube only
  • Vialogues- for content that you created or haven't uploaded yet. - allows poll questions and add comments
Thought of a small video business owner I know in terms of clients in one spot, him in another, but both being able to view the video at the same time and make comments to each other- of course, they could both just get on the phone... (sure, if you want to do it the easy way!)
