TokBox, which was a very nice video-conferencing application that was on The Best Online Tools For Real-Time Collaboration, is shutting down their site. TechCrunch reports that, instead, they are letting other businesses use their software to create new apps.
The stuff they’ve created so far looks pretty weird and useless to me but the bottom line is that my The Best list for real time collaboration has plenty of good alternatives.

Yeah, it is sad.
Video didn’t kill the radio but I think Skype killed Tokbox. There model was too much a “closed” skype. Worked wonderfully but hard to get traction against such a monster.
Thanks for letting us/me know!
